Datsun 240Z 2.4 Liter 1973
General description :
1973 Datsun 240Z one sweet Fair Lady
Just Toys Classic Cars is proud to present a very cool car from over seas that has made a big splash her in the USA for a long time. This here is a 1973 Datsun 240Z. This was marketed in its home land of Japan as the Fairlady Z. This was a very popular vehicle when it hit our shores and remains extremely popular today with the 370Z's. The fit and finish on this car are in great shape and factory fresh. This fair lady has had one repaint about 5 years ago and the white paint presents very well today. All of the doors, hatch back and hood close just like they should which means that all of the hinges are good and don't sag. This car looks just like one that you would have found on a lot back in the day. It is just that clean.
Now we know that you can not resist just wanting to jump in this car. So, open up that driver door and slide yourself in to this surprisingly roomy interior. There is ample leg room in this car. Some of us here are over 6 feet tall and we fit very well in it. Everything is easy to reach and easy to read in this almost cockpit like interior. There is a little patina in the drivers seat, but no major rips or tears, and the passenger seat looks like it has never been sat in. There are also no rips or tears in the dash or headliner, and as you will see in the pics, the rear cargo area is in great shape as well with plenty of storage room, and even extra speakers to give you all the sound you need to cruise down the road.
Ok, enough about how comfortable this car is. This is a drivers car. With the coil spring front suspension and independent rear suspension, this fair lady is just begging you to throw her in to some turns and go have some fun. So reach out for that key and turn her over to listen to that 2.4 liter engine just purr like a kitten. This car was not built for a ton of horse power, it was built for driving excitement, and that is what this car delivers. 150 HP for a car that only weights 2300 pounds is just begging you to go find some curvy roads to go have some fun with. So lean on the gas, and ease off the clutch, and leave wherever you are in the dust, and get ready to go have the drive of your life. Once you bang through the gears of this baby you will see why we say that this baby is just so much fun to drive.
We offer classic car financing for those that would like to take advantage of the option. They offer great rates and terms and allow you to pay your baby off when you want to without any prepayment penalties. This way you don't have to take all of the cash out of the bank at once and still get the car of your dreams. We look forward to speaking with you soon, and making you the newest member of the Just Toys Classic Cars family.

About Datsun
Once upon a time in the mystical land of Japan, there was a small, unassuming car company called Datsun. Legend has it that the name "Datsun" was created when someone dropped a bunch of Scrabble tiles and thought, "Sure, that'll do!" Datsun started with small, quirky cars that made you wonder if they were more suited for a toy store than a car dealership.In the 1950s, Datsun had a brilliant idea: "Let's try our luck in the American market!" They shipped over the Datsun 1000, a car so tiny that even a clown could drive it comfortably. Americans scratched their heads but soon fell in love with its compact cuteness. It was like adopting a small, four-wheeled puppy.
As the '60s rolled in, Datsun unveiled the 240Z, a sports car that could outrun a samurai in flip-flops. It had the speed of a cheetah and a design that turned heads faster than a ninja on roller skates. The 240Z became an instant classic and showed that Datsun was more than just quirky little cars.
In the '70s, Datsun dropped the 510, a sedan with the agility of a ninja and a suspension so smooth, it could make you believe you were floating on a cloud. Families across America hailed it as the car that could carry everything – from groceries to grandmas – without breaking a sweat.
But the real magic happened when Datsun revealed the Datsun 510 wagon. It was like Mary Poppins' bag, fitting more stuff than seemed humanly possible. This wagon was an enigma, a mystery, and America couldn't get enough.
Then, in the '80s, Datsun pulled a fast one and changed their name to Nissan, leaving us all a bit befuddled. But they continued making fantastic cars that were zippier than a sushi chef on a Saturday night.
And that's the whimsical tale of how Datsun – or should I say, Nissan – took over the American market, one quirky yet lovable car at a time.
As for the most influential Datsun models and their specs:
Datsun 240Z: The 240Z was a sports car sensation. It featured a 2.4-liter inline-six engine, producing around 150 horsepower. With rear-wheel drive and a sleek design, it was a blast to drive and a style icon of its time.
Datsun 510: The Datsun 510, available as a sedan and wagon, was loved for its handling and durability. It typically came with a four-cylinder engine, producing around 96 horsepower, and was known for its agile suspension.
Datsun 510 Wagon: The Datsun 510 Wagon was like a Tardis, with a deceptively spacious interior. It shared the same engine as the sedan and provided exceptional versatility for families on the go.
These Datsun models left an enduring legacy with their quirky charm, performance, and practicality, making them cherished classics in the hearts of car enthusiasts and families alike.
Oh, one more thing...years after BMW made a copy or the 510 and decided to call it e30. Strange world!
