It's also not named GT40 because ford doesn't own the GT40 trademark. A company called SAFIR GT40 Spares does.

Kinda tempted to make a separate thread for just Datsun encounters with other cool cars on the road, but believe it or not I dont see cars this cool very often.

Wow - You don't see THOSE every day!

Oddly enough, while I was cruising up Rt. 3 in Wethersfield in our 280zx on Saturday evening (7pm-ish), I spotted a blue s30 going in the same direction just up ahead of me... we were separated by just one car. Of course just as I was about to catch up, he (/she??) took a left onto Prospect St. and I continued north on Rt. 3.

Frank T - was that you?

What are the odds of coming across another 'old' Z while you're out cruising in your own old Z? :D

Not Guilty.

My Z Radar would have detected you anywhere within a 1/2 Klick of my poz.

Aha it was actually Marvin who told me that a bunch of people were spotting another green S30 around Stamford. Heres a picture in his driveway. The ZX is a parts car if anyones looking for ZX parts

What's with the Daphne? Did you finally name your car?

And how come your grille support is OUTSIDE your grille?

Totally unique.

My 260Z was Daisy and this 240Z is Daphne :lol:. The grille supports are on the inside though it looks like the grille is bent in some places. Now that you mention it I might paint those black again since it does stand out more than id like. Ive seen one of these roaming around, just need to get some pictures with my 1/1 1971 Datsun 240Z Grand Sport :roll:
