This is my 1972 Datsun 240Z. This car was Grassroots Motorsports internet hot rod of the month in the November 2007 issue. Then it had a 3.0L stroker L6 motor. Soon after, the car was parked (long story). Although I loved the sound of the straight 6, I was ready to turn this into a fast car instead of just a quick car. After long thought, I chose the LS6 as my power plant. I'll let the pictures tell the rest of the story.
Nice work! That's a beautiful and exciting car.
Is it wrong for me to say I want to be inside of that ?
Wow.

Yikes, that came out wrong
Thanks for the compliments. It's been out of commission for quite some time. Looking like it'll be drivable next week. Sorry forgot to mention year and model in the thread title.

Or did it? 
Is it just me or does that dash have some brutal glare?
Looks like a hell of a lot of fun though. Why was it parked? My toys are getting parked now until my knee heals up.

Parked due to many reasons. One of them money. The dash still needs to be painted.

Absolutely amazing!!!
Kudos on a fantastic build. LS6 FTW. Moar pics and video plz.
Had my heart set on building a SBC or SBF Z-car maybe 7-8 yrs ago. Got money, no time anymore.
Well done!
There's so much room in that engine bay it's ridiculous. They're not that big a car!
I would give everybody's left nut for that car!!!
