Additional information and mods

This car has been meticulously built by Jeremy (CarConnection) and Powerfab Auto for the past 2 years. I have been very busy with work and I have been living in Vegas for the past year. Now I am moving to San Diego and with my line of work, I know I will never drive this car in the next few years or ever for that fact. My newborn daughter has kept me more than busy. In the past 2 years I myself have only driven it 3 times. I have for sale my pride and joy. A 1973 datsun 240z that had the original carb motor swapped out with a turbo ZX motor and lots of goodies.

Sharp cars. Wish I had the money to buy and mod one of those cars. Something about them just looks cool.
