Newbie to the 240Z

Hi guys I've always loved the Z classic styling. After seeing this picture It really sparked my desire to build one. Can anybody tell me who makes that front end and headlights? The hood, front bumper and headlights are different. I'm not sure if those are stock fenders. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Also is this one shown a 240 or 280?

beautiful

Not only can these cars be extremely nice looking, they can handle like a race car if you so desire, or anywhere in between with the cool aftermarket parts available now. Check these guys out.

Thanks for the link those parts look great. I want to road race with it. I'm on the hunt for a chassis in good condition.

Do you know anything about the exterior mods in that attached picture?

The hood looks stock to me.
Look at Z Car Parts.com -- Motorsport Auto -- Home for the body kit/headlight covers.

The turn signals make it a 240 or early 260, but they could have been moved if it is a 280...that being said the picture is tagged as a 240.

Looks like a fiberglass bumper (but could be a 240 stock metal bumber that has been shaved and painted), stock hood, headlight covers, and air dam. As said above, all of those things can be purchased from MSA or any one of several other retailers.

The headlight covers alone can totally change the look on the Z cars. Tinted headlight covers here:
