This 1972 Datsun 240Z shows approximately 66,059 miles and presents in a timeless White over Red color combination. Enhanced with desirable upgrades including Konig Rewind wheels, 240Z side stripe graphics, an aftermarket front air dam, and a reupholstered interior, this classic Z retains its vintage character while offering tasteful enhancements that complement its iconic design and driving experience.

Exterior and Interior

The exterior of this 1972 Datsun 240Z is finished in White, a color that perfectly highlights the model’s long hood, short deck proportions, and unmistakable fastback silhouette. Often compared to contemporary European sports cars of the era, the 240Z’s styling has aged remarkably well and remains instantly recognizable more than five decades after its debut. This example features period-inspired 240Z side stripe graphics that accentuate its sporty character, while an aftermarket front air dam adds a more aggressive appearance. Completing the look is a set of Konig Rewind wheels, a popular choice among Z enthusiasts thanks to their classic design that pays homage to vintage motorsport wheels. The interior of this 1972 Datsun 240Z is finished in Red and has been reupholstered, creating a fresh and inviting cabin that remains faithful to the car’s sporting roots. The driver-focused cockpit places the essential gauges and controls within easy reach, while the low seating position and expansive view over the hood deliver the engaging experience that made the 240Z famous. A Pioneer audio head unit provides modern audio functionality while maintaining everyday usability, making this classic sports car equally enjoyable for weekend cruises and local car shows.

Engine

Under the hood of this 1972 Datsun 240Z resides a 2,393cc naturally aspirated inline-six engine fed by a pair of twin Hitachi-SU side-draft carburetors. Revered for its smooth power delivery, distinctive induction sound, and reliability, this engine helped distinguish the 240Z from many of its competitors. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a desirable 4-speed manual transmission, providing the direct and engaging driving experience that enthusiasts seek in a vintage sports car. Combined with the 240Z’s lightweight construction, balanced chassis, fully independent suspension, and responsive steering, the result is a rewarding analog driving experience that continues to earn admiration from collectors and enthusiasts around the world.
