Did you know the Datsun 240Z was not the brand’s first significant sports car? These were the first Japanese two-seaters that could hold their own against MGs, Triumphs and Fiats of the period and we have one here at MotoeXotica Classic Cars that is pretty special and with a little secret under the hood!
This example has been completely gone through and built by a local Nissan Dealer and has many new parts. Finished in red, the exterior paint and trim are in good condition. The body remains straight, the engine bay is very tidy and the chrome bumpers fit tightly to the body. The Super Start battery looks good. The cargo area behind the seats is in very good order. Note the single reverse light mounted under the rear bumper.
This Datsun rolls on Classic radials, size 165/80R15 on Panasport alloy wheels. The wheels and tires are all in good condition. Under the front-hinged hood is professionally swapped Ford SVO 2.3L I4 turbocharged four-cylinder engine from a 1980’s SVO Fox Body Mustang and it’s mated to a Mustang five-speed manual transmission.
