School me on Datsun/Nissan S30's

[rturbo 930]

maybe in non-california. In CA, if it's a '76 or newer, it has to be smogged.

260Zs were only made in '74

Sorry, I have no clue. 15 or 16 inch by wide?

Will

they look the same size as the rim diameter, nice.

lol it's not gonna sell for that price. Not a chance.

It's exempt from smog testing.

I saw a nice (albeit with rust) yellow '78 280z 2+2 parked on old hwy 101 in encinitas last night for sale $8k
...didn't know a rusty one could command so much!

if anyone wants a ratty 260z with a "recently-rebuilt" motor for real cheap, I know of one in Belmont. It's been standing for at least 2 years, so it's a resto project, but a pretty decent base to work from. I'm not sure if it's pre-smog.

Yeah I think that the 2+2 would make a cool cruiser/slammed show car.

My fave color for the S30 is Deeeeeep green.

Is the wheelbase on a 2+2 significantly longer?

Yeah, about a foot longer.

A neighbor down he street has an orange 260 2+2 that has been sitting for years. I am resisting ever so hard the temptation to pick up another project

A 2+2 with a zg front end is acceptable

[IronFreak]

Quit posting pictures or i'll do something stupid........like sell my e30 and buy one!

[kronus]

2+2s are ugly from almost every angle. this is the only one I like:



The m20 is a completely new design and is not based on the m10 or m30 in any way, shape or form. You can get M30s with single and dual-row chains, much like the L-block motor.
