Im not so much a fan of the 280 and they are not very sought after. But I quite badly want a 240/260. I have to stop looking at them.

I just love the 240z imo the best looking zed ever made

Pure Zed... :)

This is my brothers Z, it's ace!

 

260Z slower than the 240

 

0 to 30 both the same

0 to 40 the 260 is quicker

Then after that the 240 is right through the range

 

Actual top mph figures from "The Z -Series Datsuns" by Ray Hutton

UK 260Z 127 Motor May 1974 Same figures in Autosport Apr 1974)

UK 260Z 2+2 120 Autocar Aug 1974

Opps missed faster out and should read

Convert it to LHD,

 

And pray tell why you would want to import an imported rhd car from the States and then convert it to a left hooker over here :slap:

oppss LOL a typo

Some more that do it for me

 

Love the 240 to bits always have one of my life goals is to own a half decent one and personalise it, maybe a retirement gift lol

 

i've got some other pics not on the thread so will post a couple when on home pc, couple of Californian imports 2

 

Oh and the last 240 i seen go on uk's ebay ~(not long ago) went for a little over £1000.00 and it needed ALLOT of work to say the least

I think that the general concensous is that if a Uk 240z has not had a recent £10k restoration rebuild then its a rustbucket in need of a £10k restoration.

 

Post more pics... :D

i wish i had more to post, they are gorgous and im getting told from the wench no fokin way lol

I've got one standing in my drive. Make me an offer.

I had a 280zx on the rd, was a nice one with aftermarket wheels, as Legrath said they are not that sought after and erm not that quick

 

and although they look similar to a 280, 240/260's are in a different league imo

The pics i have on my pc of 240's :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

240z vert as owned by you know who (well i think you will know;))
