Well, for something really different: Anybody into, or care about early 240z cars? I'm searching for a 1970, rust free western car.

Yes. I had a nice '73 240Z from about 1990 to 1992. Drove it across the US more than once. Great car. I always thought I'd get another someday...

Ahhhh the sixties... I envision myself one early Saturday morning wearing plaid shorts, black shoes with white socks smoking a cigarette heading to the hardware store to buy a bag of nails.
SWB cars are an acquired taste however once acquired theirs no turning back.
I have a 28,xxx mile late 74 260Z on 5 date-coded original tires I would let go if you want a really nice one. Full disclosure...it is an automatic...but keep reading. Those cars were built in LHD and RHD configurations in both auto and manual trans. My fairly extensive research on the topic indicates it is a completely bolt-on job with all mountings already in place from the factory to convert one to a manual trans. I planned on doing a 5-speed swap on this car but just never got to it. They also do not, to my knowledge, decode to either auto or manual on their data tags or VIN. More disclosure...it is not currently running. I am fairly certain I am having a fuel delivery issue. Probably ethanol related due to the fact that I never drive it. Rest assured, however, this is a superior Z car. Not perfect for sure, but better than all but the best. Car is in Baltimore, MD.

If that dash had been Stuttgart influenced in the manner of Porsche i.e, more subtle, the model might be 10x's the price today.
Occasionally you see 240 or 260's at events, but never ran across a 510 Bluebird..

Owned a number of 240Z's (510's also)in the 70's and loved them. Stick with years 70'-72', emissions kicked in in 73' and then they started getting bulky.
