After years of waiting, dreaming and hoping…the Sunbeam is on the ground.
A quick spin over to Rog’s saw the axle finished and back in. I’m pretty sure this car is at least group 4 through 12 now. Alas, it’s on the back-burner while a certain cheeky Italian number gets some love… Alfa and Omega? We’ve got it covered.
This has to be one of the most complete and stunning 240z’s in the world, add to that its a real zg and you have a very special car!
“The HS30-H Nissan Fairlady 240ZG was released in Japan in October 1971 to homologate the 240Z for Group 4 racing. Differences between the 240ZG and an export market Datsun 240Z include an extended fibreglass ‘aero-dyna’ nose, wider over-fenders riveted to the body, a rear spoiler, acrylic glass headlight covers and fender mounted rear view mirrors. The 240ZG was available in three colours: Grande Prix Red, Grande Prix White and Grande Prix Maroon. The “G” in 240ZG stands for “Grande.” Although the ZG was never sold outside Japan, in order for it to be eligible for competition in the US, Nissan sold the nose kit as a dealer’s option which is known as the “G-nose”.” – Wikipedia
