1973 240Z (red), no engine or diff fitted.  This is my old hillclimb/sprint car which is very tidy but not perfect.  Excellent basis for a road restoration or a track day weapon.  Car handles superbly (very neutral) and is mighty quick with the right engine/diff package.  This is a class winning car which set a new class record last year at Castle Combe.
Major structural work done about 10yrs ago - new air tubes, chassis rails, sills, front wings & rad support. Virtually every part of this car has been overhauled or replaced over the years. Pics can be seen in the gallery under Competition cars.  Breaks my heart to let it go, but having two race 240Z's is just an indulgence.  Would rather see the car used than lie in the garage gathering dust.

Spec as follows:
Wheels - Comp ML 15x7, with Yoko A032r tyres(205/55).  14x7 Performance with Yoko A509's as spares.
Brakes - Vented front discs with Toyota 4 pots.  Goodridge brake/clutch lines, Willwood brake prop valve. 280ZX master cylinder.
Suspension - Tokico adjustable strut inserts. 2.25" coil over springs with adjustable platforms.  Urethane bushes throughout.  Adjustable strut top mounts at front.  Rose jointed roll bar drop links.
Steering - quick steering knuckles, bump steer spacers and urethane bushes.
Fuel - 4.5 gal aluminium tank with facet red top pump and filter king.
Safety - Safety Devices rear bolt in cage.  Have front cage and door bars ready to be fitted.  Omex rev limiter & FIA ignition master switch.  Pair of Cobra race seats with harnesses
Bodywork - grp bonnet & tailgate fitted.  Have doors and perspex windows ready to be fitted. Grp front spoiler/bumper also ready to be fitted. Steel bonnet available but has a dent which is repairable.
Misc - 3 core rad, solid diff mount, quick shift gear lever.  Lots of misc other spares.

Mail me on: zman240uk@aol.com with offers or any questions.  Can supply more pics if reqd.

If you dont get anyone interested I might be. Mail me back about how much you want roughly. and if it is tax free. I've been looking for a shell to restore but was gonna chop up my 260 to do it.
