1972 Datsun 240Z review from North America
"This is a great history car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I bought this car sitting in the garage for quite sometime, test run it looks it dragging the rear wheels,found out the shoes was frozen I decided to do a complete restoration pull out to the last bolts on the body, check evaluate found few rust on the lower side fender and flooring due to faulty heater hoses that leaks other than that chassis and body structure are great.
General comments?
Started to restore from front and rear suspension replacing all rubber bushing and wearable parts link, like brake hoses, disc pad and shoes rebuild caliper piston and rear cylinder. all seal from inner and outer hubs.right now I'm still 20% on restoring this car all will be stock nothing will be modify or change I will rebuilt the engine and transmission myself when I finished the body paint.
