1972 PoorForm Datsun 240z



Little video I threw together for my buddy and his super legit 240z

This thing is uber cool, ZEAL coils, mikuni carbs, cusco bracing, nardi wheel, TE37BE's, etc etc.

Enjoy!

Nice. Sweet ride. I've always wanted a clean early Z car. One of my main reasons for buying a twin was how much they remind me of the 1st gen Z.

He let's me drive it all the time, it feels so raw, cusco bracing and coils and I feel like I should be doing rally stages and mountain runs constantly. I'd highly recommend it, it reminds a guy why we modify cars, instead of letting technology's progressive nature modify them for us through the manufacturer.

Fuckin' rad car he has. I bought one years ago with similar dreams for it. Until a pine tree fell over on it. Love that he's modded the L6. The triple carbs are super sexy. Also love that it's actually painted and doesn't have those rivet/screw on fender flares.

All is good, just poking! You gotta admit though it is a good lapse for such a simple comment.
