Enjoy.... Turn the volume up.... [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EO2y_-vpolA"]Dare to Be Different in a Datsun 240Z - YouTube[/ame]
Next to my old 69 911T, those old 240s are - bar none - one of my favorite all time sixes to have had the pleasure to drive!
This was my 240Z - Vin #248. My videos no Petrolicius, but it was fun! The car was restored from the ground up and had an warmed over LT1 with a T56 6 speed, weighed just over 2200 lbs.. Turned an 11.9 in the quarter. It was Hagertys car of the month - that as cool! Recently sold to make way for my wife staying at home. And the Mini.

Bryan, viewing your video takes me back to 1975 when we took my buddy's 71 240z to Tahoe on a skiing trip. What a blast we had and I got to do most of the driving. Wished that old car was still around.... Great Video!
Just realized that doesn't show the Z at all. . Hybridz.org is the place to go if you're interested in really fast Z's. The pics and build thread of mine are over there as well.
#248 was my ninth Z - leaving them and starting over in Minis has been an adjustment. A good one though.
Had a nice 1976 280Z back in 77, mildly modified for extreme street. Funny how they stick in our hearts, it was a blast to see how fast I could run from Omaha to Denver. And yes, my current wife and I did road trips in this Z, so it was extra special. Don
