Hey guys just wanted to know if anyone knows any info on this 240z!

It's badged a 432 which came stock with the classic S20...but i know they are rare as hell and i've only seen the stock orange so far as being a legit 432. Just wanted to know if anyone knows anything else about this! The sickest cars in my mind...

Doesn't look genuine to me. Steering wheel is on the wrong side for a start. North American spec rear reflectors, etc. Looks like a USA car that went back to Japan, and they whacked a 432 badge on it for the hell of it. A 432 shouldn't have a Datsun badge either.

Yeah the left-hand drive had me questioning it straight away, I didn't think it would be a genuine one but i wonder if it's had a transplant because i'd feel a little stupid putting such a rare badge on it, to then be asked to pop the bonnet and reveal an L series haha (don't get me wrong, i bloody love the L series) but the whole reason for that badge is so you can show off an S20 inside a fairlady!

Doesn't seem to bother the Japanese. They do all sorts of weird crap to their cars.

It looks like a USA spec 240z. Can tell by the side markers, LHD, and petrol flap.

The photo comes from here: http://high-top-fade.blogspot.com.au/

Maybe you could ask if he has any more photos/info.

Yeah i've watched some rocky auto vids on youtube actually, well worth a look to anyone who hasn't. they run a pretty tight shop, and the cars they produce are utterly amazing.

If i ever won the lotto i'd be asking them to build me something!
