We love to see our clients Enjoying The Ride and there were several at last Sunday’s pre-Monterey Car Week gathering with Built By Legends. The event was held at Range Energy in Mountain View, Ca. Above is Erich’s 1973 Datsun 240Z featuring our Z Car Garage Big-Brakes and dyno tuned Rebello 3L.

 

Kurt’s 1973 Nissan Kenmeri Skyline is fresh from restoration and we will have a full feature on zcarblog.com. It was great to see Rick in his 1965 Nissan Silvia among the Skylines. Thanks to Matt Brown and NorCal Skylines for the photos!

Race car driver, restorer and Datsun Historian Glenn Chiou has just listed his IMSA GTU 260z race car on Bring a Trailer. The Z features our ZCG CV Axles and dyno tuning. This is a rare opportunity to own a fully-restored, competitive vintage race car, so spread the word and bid with confidence!

 
    
 

We have been fortunate to race alongside Glenn and the Different Drummer Racing 260Z at several high-profile events. See it in action in our race reports from  the Velocity Invitational at Weathertech Raceway Laguna Seca.

Z Car Garage is proud to be a sponsor for the 36th Annual Z Car Convention (ZCON) hosted by ZCCA  and Group Z Sports Car Club in Ontario, Ca July 31 to August 5. This is the largest Z-car event in the US and we are stoked to participate.

We will have a vendor booth onsite featuring parts we sell including our Z Car Garage Big-Brakes, Z Car Garage CV Axles, Z Car Garage Heat Shield and Panasport wheels:

 

We will also have a Nissan CD009a 6-speed swap for you to see, touch and feel. Don’t forget to pick up some ZCG swag/merchandise!

The #49 Joel Anderson IMSA GTU 240Z

 

The #49 Joel Anderson IMSA GTU Datsun 240Z has a rich racing history and actively runs in vintage race groups with Rob Fuller behind the wheel. It is a fitting car to be displayed in the lobby as it has ties to the Ontario Motor Speedway Pace cars that Nissan/Datsun campaigned in the 70’s.
