I no longer have the time to work on my Datsun and I need it gone as I’m out of space to store cars (And have several that need to be in my garage to be worked on and or parted out). I’m selling my '71 project car I acquired in November of 2007. It was originally a California car and brought to Buffalo in 2001 where it was stored behind a house until I purchased it in 2007. The previous owner had lunched the transmission and parked the car until I picked it up. The car was then completely stripped down, new floors welded in (two small holes need to be patched), engine bay stripped, holes filled where brackets used to be, battery tray deleted, etc. The car comes with: '71 Datsun 240z - $1000 - Modern Motorsports Carbon Fiber ZG Flares (rear’s are sitting inside the car, front’s installed). - Factory 240z HVAC - Factory 240z Dashboard - Factory 240z Gauges - Factory 240z Stock Suspension - Factory 240z Stock Wheels - Factory 240z Stock Brakes - Factory 240z Stock Brake Booster and Master cylinder - Factory 240z Stock Differential R160 (I can’t remember the ratio and did not jack the car up sorry!) - Replaced Floors '95 KA24DE 90k miles $500 -Full swap -Wiring Harness -ECU -Great condition transmission 40k miles -Injectors -MAF -Intake -Motor Mounts -Long Block with all accessories Vildini Motorsports KA24/SR20 Mount kit - $200 obo Nismo/Recaro SRD seats with sliders - $200 obo Photos and some more description: ![http://www.mturck.com/240z/Sale/DSCF6630.jpg](http://www.mturck.com/240z/Sale/DSCF6630.jpg) ![http://www.mturck.com/240z/Sale/DSCF6631.jpg](http://www.mturck.com/240z/Sale/DSCF6631.jpg) ![http://www.mturck.com/240z/Sale/DSCF6632.jpg](http://www.mturck.com/240z/Sale/DSCF6632.jpg) ![http://www.mturck.com/240z/Sale/DSCF6643.jpg](http://www.mturck.com/240z/Sale/DSCF6643.jpg) Exterior photos, rear flares not installed, driver’s side cut and nutserts installed. The inner fender well still needs to be welded up against the body for a “water tight” fit. ![http://www.mturck.com/240z/Sale/DSCF6637.jpg](http://www.mturck.com/240z/Sale/DSCF6637.jpg) ![http://www.mturck.com/240z/Sale/DSCF6638.jpg](http://www.mturck.com/240z/Sale/DSCF6638.jpg) The two holes left to be patched. The floors have been replaced with thicker than factory replacement items. The frame rails are MINT, they had to small holes near the front of the car which have been patched with thicker than factory gauge steel. ![http://www.mturck.com/240z/Sale/DSCF6636.jpg](http://www.mturck.com/240z/Sale/DSCF6636.jpg) ![http://www.mturck.com/240z/Sale/DSCF6641.jpg](http://www.mturck.com/240z/Sale/DSCF6641.jpg) ![http://www.mturck.com/240z/Sale/DSCF6646.jpg](http://www.mturck.com/240z/Sale/DSCF6646.jpg) The interior is currently stripped down, I do not have the carpet for it as it was in horrible condition. The headliner is in NEW condition as are the sunshades. ![http://www.mturck.com/240z/Sale/DSCF6642.jpg](http://www.mturck.com/240z/Sale/DSCF6642.jpg) Shot of the wood steering wheel, it’s in fantastic condition, nicely aged IMO. ![http://www.mturck.com/240z/Sale/DSCF6645.jpg](http://www.mturck.com/240z/Sale/DSCF6645.jpg) Engine bay is stripped down to be sprayed and so that all of the original bracket holes could be filled in (already done). You can also see one of the frame rail patches. I have not ground down any of the welds to make them “pretty”. ![http://www.mturck.com/240z/Sale/DSCF6647.jpg](http://www.mturck.com/240z/Sale/DSCF6647.jpg) Small bit of surface rust on the roof that needs to be sanded out. ![http://www.mturck.com/240z/Sale/DSCF6648.jpg](http://www.mturck.com/240z/Sale/DSCF6648.jpg) The old interior rear piece (in front of the tail lights in the hatch) was damaged so I purchased one in much better condition. ![http://www.mturck.com/240z/Sale/DSCF6649.jpg](http://www.mturck.com/240z/Sale/DSCF6649.jpg) ![http://www.mturck.com/240z/Sale/DSCF6653.jpg](http://www.mturck.com/240z/Sale/DSCF6653.jpg) KA24DE and mounting crossmember. The KA has 90k miles on it, great leakdown and compression. ---
