This no-expense-spared restored first-generation 1973 Datsun 240Z
is refinished in its original factory Datsun Gray. The only body
modification was incorporating a one-piece front air dam. The front
hood, air dam, rockers and bottom of the rear quarter-panels have
been protected with the application of clear PPF. The original
matching-numbers Datsun inline-6 engine was rebuilt by Wayne
Calvert Precision Engines of Denton, TX, with a Nissan 2.6-liter
crankshaft, polished Stage II performance camshaft, ported and
polished cylinder head providing displacement of 2.6 triple Weber
40 DCOE side-draft carburetors were installed, as well as a
polished Datsun valve cover, polished stainless-steel intake heat
shield, aluminum radiator, high-flow electric fuel pump, fuel
regulator, 6-1 tubular header with custom exhaust system and an
Optima battery. Handling was paramount for this build and is
provided by BC Racing adjustable coilovers with lowering springs,
Silver Mine Motors adjustable billet aluminum front and rear
control arms, quick steering knuckles, bump steer kit, MSA sway
bars, aluminum camber plates, front and rear strut tower braces,
power-assisted Wilwood 4-wheel disc brakes over cross-drilled and
slotted rotors with a Wilwood master cylinder. It has a 1979 280Z
5-speed transmission, aluminum flywheel and 5-lug hubs with
custom-ordered 17-inch Rota wheels wrapped in Nitto tires. The
interior was restored to its original factory black, including the
door cards, side panels and headliner. Sound-deadening was
installed with new carpet and matching floor mats. The dash is
beautiful - all the factory gauges are clear and functional,
including the clock. A spare 17-inch Rota wheel and tire have been
mounted in the rear storage area.
