1970 Datsun 240 Drag Car For Sale
Offered here is a purpose-built 1970 Datsun 240Z with long-term ownership spanning more than 20 years and a documented racing history that sets it apart from any other Z-car. This is the time-slip proven fastest 1970 240Z in the world, with hundreds of recorded passes in the low 5s, the best being an impressive 5.03 in the 1/8 mile and a consistent 1.12-second 60-foot.
The car is powered by a 434ci SBC built around a Dart Little M block, paired with a 500 Pro Mod Powerglide transmission. It breathes through aluminum 18-degree cylinder heads and a 1050 Dominator carburetor, running a race-fuel-only 16.1:1 compression setup. A 600-stall converter delivers the hit this chassis is designed for.
Power is sent to a Ford 9-inch rear end with 46-spline Strange axles, and the suspension is built to handle the car's output and launch characteristics. It features custom front struts with adjustable bound/rebound front shocks, allowing the car to plant effortlessly and repeat its numbers. The car runs on 110 octane or higher, as required by its compression and tuning.
Throughout its life, no expense was spared - whether in the drivetrain, suspension, electronics, or supporting systems. This is a fully sorted, professionally developed 240Z that has been proven over hundreds of passes and maintained by an owner who invested the time, money, and effort to keep it reliable and consistent at this performance level.
If you're looking for a record-holding, track-ready, fully dialed-in Z-car with unmatched history, this one stands alone.
