Used 1972 Datsun 240Z for Sale near Calgary, AB

The coolest car ever made. My favorite since I was 10. Mine is a 72 with a build date of 9/71. I purchased Kikka from the original owner in 2005. She currently has 296,000 miles on the original engine and tranny. She is the original color, but the second repaint. I have lowered the Z with Eibach progressive rate springs and Tokico HP struts with polurethane bushings all around. I've also installed 16x7 gunmetal grey Panasports with Dunlop tires. Also installed Z therapy SU's in '08. I also installed a Clarion CD/MP3/WMA player w/ music catcher and replaced the 4" Pioneer speakers the PO installed in the doors with 4" Clarions... good for now but will intall 6x9's in a custom box in the hatch.

can't really review the car as it wasn't stock or new. Dual webbers were certainly a challenge. 240 was low on power, but I liked the styling the best until the 300z 2nd gen and 350z. I wish I still owned this car.

Cornering is wonderful. Speed is great until you get over 100 mph then it gets light in the front end. Steering is unforgiving so you have to keep both hands on the wheel and your eyes on the road for you can end up in the ditch pretty quick. Could use more sound insulation.

this is my first car - got it without telling my parents ... drivers ed instructor hated me (I drove to his class without a lisc) ... I learned to drive a stick in this car (with Rico) ... a true Japanese Classic car if there ever was one ...

Great car that I always meant to restore but never got to it. I had this for quite a few years. Always read about 240Z's and finally got one. It was pretty worn out when I got it. Very reliable but had some floorpan surface rust from a window leak I never was able to fix. It had the usual rust in the lower rear quarter panels that I didn't know about when I bought it. The rear hatch leaked exhaust fumes, the seats were worn out but I still loved the car. Great date car as it was easy to hold your g-friends hand while driving since you were so close. Handled pretty good. I never did any suspension work so it was pretty worn out. I have fond memories of driving over 17 and listening to the sound of the exhaust from the straight 6. If I ran it up in rpm's in 3rd and shifted I'd get flames out the back which was cool.
