Nissan Sport Magazine

The Z car made its debut in the United States in 1969. During the period of October 1969 through September 1970, Datsun made about 7,000 1970 model 240Z's for the U.S.

The Z with the lowest VIN number ever sold in the U.S. was VIN HLS30-00013. "Lucky 13", as it later became to be known, was long thought to have been lost to the crusher or otherwise gone forever.

Through an almost miraculous series of events, #13 was discovered here in Connecticut - very much alive and well.

The discovery of #13 is so extraordinary that Nissan Sport Magazine featured it as the cover story in a recent issue.

To read all the first-hand details about how #13 was uncovered, please see this thread in our discussion forum.

CTZCC member Colin Gentle Jr. had his red 240Z featured in a short film recently directed by Dylan Osborne entitled "Inheritance".

The 4 minute film was shot in HD during May 2009 with a small but professional cast and crew from NY.

STORY LINE: On the day of their father's death, a family gathers at his mansion to read the will. But his last wish is an anything goes, high speed race pitting them against one another to see who deserves to earn his fortune. Only Emily, the 'Cinderella' in this modern day fairy tale, brings more to the race than just a fast car.

Colin's Z is the car that Emily is "driving" en route to the mansion for the reading of the will. In reality, the car was driven mostly by Colin (and by his father on the second day of filming).
