1971 240z Series 1 Restored California WOW!

Description for Datsun Z-Series 1971

Up for auction is a nicely restored 1971 240z Series I with the authentic rare hand throttle feature. This is a 2016/2017 restoration with only a few miles on the odometer. The restoration consisted of a combination of new authenticate Nissan parts, original reconditioned parts and OEM parts. The Z was intended to stay in my personal car collection, but I decided to buy a RV instead to take the family out on trips. A little history about the Z, I purchased it from an 85 year old man in the City of Los Angeles a couple of years ago. Since the Z was intended to stay in my collection I only used quality parts and material. Please ask questions or send a vehicle inspector to rate this Z. I will ship World Wide.
