i have a rear hatch that has single shock support mounts. It does not have the vents like the series one hatch does. What year did it come from?

Looking at my parts CD, it looks like 240z cars up to july/73 had single deck lid stays, or supports.

! have a 71...same hatch...single shock, no vents.

The Series 2 cars began production in February 1971 so it looks like the production range for your hatch would be 02/71 - 07/73.

Cool. Thanks guys!

Thanks, Jim. You are perfectly correct. I was just being all inclusive for the single hatch support use. I think we are twins. Both original owners, and cars are within a month apart. Mine is hls30-20419 with a prod. date of 1/71.

I guess that makes us both really old, too.

Hi,

I'd like to make this triplets!!

As is, I'm the original owner of a 1/71 with production # HIS30-18859

Cheers,

Thread hijack alert!!!

Dan and George,

I'm sure you both will agree that any original owner of a Series 1 car is a certified, card-carrying member of The Old Farts Club! I'd say that puts us all in very fine company.

Dan - I recall a thread from earlier this year with a mention of a Series 1 VIN of 205XX, possibly the very last of this run. That would certainly put your car almost next in line to the last of these classics.
