Daughter with my modified Z back in 1986



Me at Stanford (a client back then) in 1978 or 79. Cromodora wheels and custom made suit. Pretty fly for a white guy

Nice

They were great cars - all-arounders with a lot of modding potential. In CA, it requires a '73 or earlier chassis but then you can legally add 3 twin-choke webers, headers, and a decent exhaust to instantly have the finest soundtrack this side of a 911.

Nice Koi.
My current two. The 240Z I bought in 1987, and the Twin Turbo in 2017.

I had another z, silver like the one my daughter is standing in front of which was a scarab.

Stunning cars, I have driven a friend's Z240 back in the eighties, and a neighbour took me for a drive in his 300ZX which was an eye-opener for sure.

That’s awesome - that really makes them a particular hoot! My buddy had a scarab-massaged 72 240z with a bow tie 327 crammed in... it made a LOT of heat, but good lord did it haul the mail!

Hey D-240 - it’s hard to believe that TT 300ZX is now a classic... Just yesterday it was the latest and greatest! Hell, it had super-HICAS rear wheel steering for craps sake! (They were so far ahead of the curve that engineers are still toying with the concept!)

". . .custom made suit. . ."
Beautiful cars.
Can't believe 'bell bottoms' were ever "in".
But, I did have a couple of leisure suits with the required polyester shirt at the time.
