1973 datsun 240z for sale by owner - Morgan Hill, CA - craigslist (2024)

The front half of the body is the original 1973 240Z but the rear end is donated from a very clean 1975 280Z. I have a ton of pictures of the entire project. The engine is an L28 2.8 liter from a 1978 280z with a stage 2 N47 head, triple 40mm dual side draft Mikuni carbs, 6-into-1 MSA header, 5-speed manual transmission, 3.54 R200 rear end. The suspension has been replaced with Tokico High performance adjustable struts and shocks and Eibach springs, lowering the car about 1.25”. The car sits on 15X7 rims with 205/50/r15 tires and 7/8” sway bars. Body fairly clean with only some smaller dents here and there and, very little work required. Little to no rust. Only slight surface rust from sitting under tarp in garage.

Combo/Blinker assembly has been reconditioned, wire harness is complete and in good condition. All lights work and all bulbs were replaced with LED bulbs. The fuse box has been replaced with new MSA blade style box. All interior and exterior panels are present plus extras. The car has only been run a handful of times for tuning purposes and currently still has a small electrical draw, which drains the battery slowly. Needs throttle cable installed, some tuning done for timing and carbs. Have all lights and blinkers, windows, bumpers, interior and exterior panels, plus extras. The only interior parts missing are the two door panels.
