Hi Terry,

I always thought it'd be great to own a RHD Z. No space or time for one 
right now!

I looked at your pics and I'm curious about the L20 engine. Was it just 
Japanese Z's that had this 2000cc engine, and which years was it produced? 
Why were the 240Z's for the US market supplied with a 2400cc rather than 
the L20?

Fellow Roadsterites,
     
I have decided to sell my right hand drive Z.  I bought it from a friend a 
few years ago with the hope of restoring it.  I am 6' 1" and 250 pounds, and 
I don't fit into it very well and don't feel comfortable driving it. It 
seems smaller inside than the Roadster, for some reason.  The car was last 
inspected and tagged in Texas in 1993.  I drove it around the neighborhood 
last week. The paint is really bad and the rear suspension needs a bushing 
or two, but the car should be inspectable and driveable as it sits.  I have 
a clear Texas title.  I have pictures of it at 
http://www.vvm.com/~tcost/RHD.htm and can send other pictures upon request. 
I have collected pieces for it over the past few years, and will send them 
along with the car.  I am retired and will deliver it to you for expenses 
from Temple, Texas.  I posted this to the Z-car list, and I thought some of 
you might be interested, also.  Next week it goes on eBay with no reserve. I 
am asking $2500 for it as is, where is. I will consider an even trade for 
something bigger than a Z. My email address is tcost@vvm.com for someone who 
wants to contact me off-list. Thanks for looking.
