In 1969, "Datsun Fairlady" (also known as Datsun Sports / Roadster) was transformed from a convertible to a GT car "Fairlady Z (also known as Datsun Z)" S30 on which a driver could ride comfortably and enjoy cruising. Its lower, longer and wider styling created an aura of elegance and fierceness, which captured many people.
Performance was of the first grade. "240Z" with the engine of 2400cc and 150ps demonstrated its potential by achieving good results in motor sports. The first generation "Z", also called "Z-Car", was famous as a biggest-selling sports car in the world with the worldwide sales for 8 years up to 1978 of 520,000. Z was admired passionately by many people.
This car is "Z-L", the upper grade model in the earliest days.
