Yeah I know Morton is driving the 1600/510 but it is still a cool video to watch. Interesting to see Morton sitting in the drivers seat inhaling a cigarette just before he dons his racing helmet...ahhh, the 70's...very much a different time!

Hi Dan Please correct me if I am wrong but I dont think .7 bolts would have been used to secure the bonnet/hood receiver to the body. .7 (Class 8.8) bolts are high tensile, medium carbon steel used for "structural" type applications.

Thought I would post this up as Bob is probably too modest to do so. Bob is a TRUE enthusiast and one hell of a nice guy. He is a member here. https://www.classiczcars.com/profile/1369-zulaytr/ Last visited here July 26, 2019...wow...what a shame.

With a bit of investigation I think this is the seller of the red 240-Z https://www.classiczcars.com/profile/12166-240z415/ The data plate is interesting on this car...must have grabbed one from the right hand drive pile!

Looks like a very nice car done to a high standard. Interesting that it started life as red, changed exterior to yellow then back to red again...full circle. The waters will be tested with this one.

Hi Mike Both very nice videos, thanks for posting them. I was interested to see a KB10 model in the carpark of the first video where they are talking about turning circle and ease of parking.

Looks like there is a program car in this video.

More super cool footage from Road Atlanta 1977

Not really sure how to define this one...

Hi Chris Interesting point; I had assumed if it was needed that you would have sourced one and fitted it. I am in Australia and have a 09/1971 HS30 240-Z Australian market car (originally sold in Tasmania) (dated with the aid of Carl using his USA database as we got different ID plates fitted from the factory here) and it has a no holes lower splash pan fitted and I have no reason to believe that it is not original to the car (granted I am not the original owner). I have seen them fitted on other cars here, but cant think of a series 1 1970 off the top of my head that had one fitted. When time permits I will go through some original literature I have which shows HS30-00004 which was the first reported car into our country and see if I am able to see a splash shield fitted to it in the original road tests/press releases. Edit already...I forgot to add it is an amazing car.

Maybe I need some educating but isnt the lower front splash shield considered "factory correct"? Bill Reagan thought so...
