So, after a few years here and 900+ posts I suppose it's time I showed off my car...

[conedodger]

Here she is, 1973 240Z Coupe in new 901 white. Original interior replaced in its original red. Suspension has lots of BRE parts in it. BRE sways, possibly BRE springs. Camber adjustable. Nissan Comp headers, strut bar, LSD Differential. Kosei K-1 Racing wheels which I am not sure I will keep. I have always loved Panosports - want to trade?

Engine is 2.4 with flat top pistons, E31 Garolomy head, triple Weber 42 DCOE carbs...

So as Steve Parmley said, check out the Z Rated Porn!

The car looks awsome. I hope mine turns out half as nice as that and I'll be happy as hell.

That is a beauty, Rob.

I like it, Rob. Clean, classic and functional. I'm not feeling the Kosei's too much either, but they aren't bad enough to spoil the effect.

Great work!

Thanks guys... I have a friend who has a shop called Original Customs. I think the name of his shop embodies how I feel about my cars. I want them to look original, but underneath, I want them to go like hell on the autocross course or the track. That way, I can take them to the concours on Sunday after having torn up the autocross course on Saturday...

Very nice, I like the exhaust on it, what do you have?

[Travel'n Man]

My '73 back in '79 was white with a red interior.....damn I miss that car. Great color.......looks sharp!!

[conedodger]

The exhaust is a Nissan Comp header with a mandrel bent exhaust going through an unknown muffler and emptying out through that Ricer Fart Can in the back. I am the second owner and the original owner's son did the mechanical build. Everything I have done is cosmetic. But that is about to change. I plan on getting some seat time in SCCA Solo II FP against my good buddy Steve Mill...

Rob,

Very Nice!

What are the side mirrors?

[conedodger]

Dave, they are either Nissan Comp Sport Mirrors or a replica. I had planned to use Vitaloni Californian mirrors and even painted them 901 White to match the car. But then after paint, I discovered the holes drilled in the door were spread too wide to put on the Vitaloni's. Too bad. They're gorgeous...

Looks great Rob!! Lovin the headlights. Oh wait that last comment was intended for the boobs thread.
