    Bought a ’72 Z new for cash! Slapped down $4,600.00 on the guy’s desk and drove out of the place! Had the pleasure of driving that car for the next 14 years! After 14, the engine and drive train were as strong as ever; but the floors had already been replaced with fiberglass; and the wheel wells had also rusted out.

    Thanx for the piece of history! It really is a very beautiful car, and very fun to drive. I currently own a 1972 and I will NEVER get rid of it.

    you could fix the hitachi carbs to work just as well as the bell-tops

  9. PaNNaP260Z Says:

  13. ilovehalo2alot Says:

  14. superdrunkkk Says:

  15. jotomas2 Says:

    I just got a 240 in bad need of restoration and even in its current shape I can’t stop staring at it, LOL. I’m starting on it soon.

    Nissan sounded “too Japanese”. LOL My, how times have changed. Now GM and Chrysler are in big financial trouble and Japanese cars are in every other driveway in America.

  17. DragonInfraXtremeRGT Says:

    the 370z looks more like the original z

  18. DragonInfraXtremeRGT Says:

  19. DragonInfraXtremeRGT Says:

    isnt this gene okerlund?

  21. norsksvartmetall999 Says:

    nissan did not called themselvs datsun. Nissan bought the brand from an existin company who made trucks under dat, and made cars named datson later datsun. Nissan in usa datsun should be an small altrnative to the more larger american cars.

  22. chenzo717 Says:

    i believe you are correct! its annoying when people associate the word datsun with cheap…..even if they were cheap!

  23. karrde7777 Says:

    i agree, some of the older lines from the 240 have been added to the 370 and it all ties in very nicely.

  24. MassiveLemon Says:

    Datsun epitomizes cheap and fast.

  25. MassiveLemon Says:

    Or do a direct L28ET swap and get a nice 13 second car with no other mods :) Then you can upgrade turbos, etc. :D
