Wow! A RHD ZX! Great stuff!
That looks like it has a lot of potential and will reward you with some exciting road time.
When you get a moment, would you please photograph the throttle linkage for me? The RHD cars must transfer the rod over to the other side of the engine, and I don't know if they do that in the engine bay, or inside the cabin like the old MGA did?

Thanks!
Frank

Re. first photo above:
I found it interesting that a Datsun should have a VW license plate.

BTW I'm trying to figure out "scarified," but so far I'm unsuccessful.
Does that have to do with one frightening or intimidating the other?

Pretty sure he meant 'sacrificed', as in one becoming a partz donor so the other can live?

I really like that paint scheme on the 240Z shell!

We have a RHD ZX in the club, have you forgotten? Notice the different parking lights up front, and the tail lights, seem to have the back up lights blackened out. Love the S30 Paint job.

Mike, I think I have one left, plus the other one which is different, doesn't wrap around, but almost like a BRE style.
