The Datsun
240Z was presented in the year 1969. In Japan the car was sold under the
name Fairlady Z. The beautiful lines were drawn by Graf Albrecht Goerz
who was also responsible for the magnificent design of the BMW 507. With
the Datsun 240Z the factory hit bulls eye, the car became the best sold
sports car in the seventies of the twentieth century. The British sports
car builders like MG and Triumph did not see the 'bomb' falling... They
were blown away from the important US market by the successful 240Z. The
Datsun 240Z was build with a unitary bodywork structure, independent
suspension all round, and powered by a smooth and powerful six cylinder
in-line engine. The 240Z proved to be very robust and capable and it was
successful in the rally competition In 1973 the 240Z was succeeded by
the 260Z which was given a 2.6 Litre engine. 6 cylinder
