Well said.

Nice pics :tup:

Very cool! My older "cool" cousin had a 240z-i was in the 11th grade i think-she was the chizz! Hers was a dark grey...gunmetal maybe? Thanks so much for sharing! Enjoyed the memories!

1971/2011 40 Years of Z Greatness

:tup:Hey cuban!! Yours are cool too! How does the older one drive?! Is it sweet or a lot of work? Torque feel comparison?! :tup::confused:

Currently rebuilding engine...I'll report as soon as I know...:D

That 240 is beautiful

Which one...the silver one is gorgeous...

:tup: :icon17:

Thanks for the comments guys! I thought I was the cool kid in school when my dad dropped me off in his 240z (25 years ago). So naturally, I bought a 2006 350z. As my love for the car increased I had to get the 2012 Nismo. So glad to see not much has changed with the 2013's =)

The Niz is the shiz...but the 240 is the original gansta...

The evolution

Damntm that silver 240z is soooooo sexzzzzzyyy

A guy around the corner from me has a 71 240 for only $700. It need a lot of work and I have no place to put it while it's fixed up but it sure it tempting.

Anywho... nice shots!

$700 bucks, man! You got a pic of it? That might be worth transporting here to California :)

Both the silver and blue one look amazinggg.. I'm hoping I can pick up one of these in the future :)

Very clean Zs

Coming from you that's a huge compliment...how's your RB coming along?

LOL mine is nothing man just trying to do a project. Original clean one have its own charm.

Mine is in finishing stage, sourcing some seats and will start with final interior work to make it ready by winter time

Doc...I read your entire thread one day...you're really being modest, your car is boss. I was really inspired and ready to follow your lead and was looking for a project car when I found her. She's too perfect to mess with...1971 Series 1, no rust, straight rails, matching numbers, original everything...so she'll be restored.

Hey GSX, your Z is a thing of beauty.

2 240 amazing x2

Thank you! I agree, the engineers at Nissan did a great job! :)

Looks really good! Those are 280zx wheels right?
