It used to be fairladys were like white whales but lately they are popping up all over the place. Though still rare its good to know there are more then a hand full around. 

 

Looks like a 240z (Left hand steering wheel + Datsun emblems on the fender) with authentic mirrors. I kinda have plans to do that to mine (same white/red interior combo) but am not 100% sure on it lol.

Your right Idk what I was looking at the 1st time round lol. 

Go for it, cant really go wrong. I just swapped in a red interior I had been saving but my exterior is matte grey. The contrast of the stock red interior vs an appropriate exterior color is really nice. My z is rocking 510 fender mirrors though because I could get them at half the price as s30 ones.

haha, he hates taking pictures of random cars.  and there were dudes working in the area of the goon and shit.  He actually did take a pic, but it was super shitty and too dark with it in the bay and we were out in the parking lot area.  He just didn't try very hard :sneaky:

Red interior came in white and silver Zs in 72... but who's gonna know yours is a 73? :) Thanks for the encouragement, right now my focus is getting it running again :thumbup:

Where was this car? I've seen it a few times.. here and there. If I'm not mistaken it looks like a 68. It's absolutely stunning!! I'd love to talk to the owner and get the history.

Ah, guess it is a 68. Zach says it's always parked at porky's palace on 99. Super clean though. Automatic with under 90,000 original miles, according to a friend of the owner.

 

wipers give it away as a 68 ;)

A guy was walking out and Zach asked if he owned it. Turns out it was the owners friend who knew a little about it's history. I say just bust up in there and demand info.

I'm thinking about putting red 240z interior in my silver 280z... nice to know that they came stock like that originally.

That would give it a nice touch. However, red parts are becoming hard to come by, an alternative would be to paint/dye the interior.

 

So far I have replacement seat covers. Although only the seat part needs to be replaced/recovered, I don't think the new seat would match the upper half in color. :hmm:
