DESCRIPTION:
New 260-Z 2+2. The next logical step.
All the particulars, the muscle, the spirit and the feeling of the 260-Z, plus a pair of extra seats.
The 2+2 is about 12 inches longer than our current Z-Car. Inside, there’s an extra pair of deeply cushioned seats in back (which fold down fora big storage deck when not in use). In essence, it’s a cockpit for four. Outside, it may take a second look to tell the difference between the two Z-Cars. That’s what we had in mind.
Datsun 260-Z 2+2. It sets you, and three good friends, free for the open road.
Anatomy of a legend: new Datsun 260-Z.
Introducing Datsun 260-Z for 1974. A product of four years of exhaustive development in Japan, and four in America. Eight years of in-depth scrutiny resulting in numerous design and engineering refinements to give America what it wants: gran-turismo motoring as faultless as modern automotive technology can provide. And, at a reasonable price.
The legacy of “Z”
Americans got their first look at the Z-Car late in 1969. It was love at first sight. Here was a car fired by an overhead cam six with all the power and response of a domestic V-8. A flat out performer with nice manners, an impressive list of standard creature comforts, and economy to the tune of around 20 miles per gallon.
Indeed, it looked as if the Z had found a new happy home. Road & Track called it "the most exciting GT car of the decade". In '72, Car and Driver readers selected the 240-Z as “Car of the Year. And in '71 and '73 they voted it "Best GT” over Porsche, Lotus Europa, and the like.
Later a Road & Track owner survey published in 1972, showed that “91% of all Z-Car owners polled said they would buy another one".
The driver’s machine.
Whatever else the Z-Car is, it’s a driver's machine. One that has taken the measure of its peers on the track as three-time SCCA C-Production National Champion, and three-time winner of the treacherous East African Safari. A car that has done a standing quarter mile in about 17 seconds, at nearly 85 MPH.
A car that has moved from 0-60 in about 9 seconds. A car that can transport two people from point A to point B with a minimum of fuss, a maximum of fun, and do it economically. But now it's even better. Now there’s 260-Z.
The picking of nits.
Up front the six-cylinder overhead cam engine has gone from 2.4 liters to 2.6 liters, to prevent loss of power as a result of complying with 1974 emission regulations. Heat dissipation and fuel delivery have been improved by a new transistorized fuel pump, larger fuel lines, a larger radiator and fan, and better carburetor cooling. To the rear there’s a redesigned taillight panel. And a new stabilizer for even better cornering ability. Spring rates have been altered and the frame, engine mounts and suspension all have been beefed up. Add those refinements to an all synchromesh 4-speed transmission that puts crisp, positive shifts in the palm of your hand — and you have an automobile the likes of which could sell anywhere from ,000 to ,000.
The affordable legend.
The 260-Z is the affordable result of Datsun-pioneered advancements in computer design and one of the most modern mass production facilities in the world.
Space-age technology also makes it economically feasible to power the Z with a sophisticated overhead cam engine. Fewer moving parts, lower inertia and less friction produce higher revs, more efficient use of fuel, and longer engine life than a cheaper pushrod engine.
The 260-Z’s superb cornering and remarkable ride are also products of superior technology. Its strut type fully independent system is usually found only on exotic racing machines, and is normally considered far too expensive to be practical on a production automobile.
The luxury of it all.
The spacious interior accommodates two 6'6" adults in unadulterated comfort. Everything is at your fingertips. Map light, overhead light, heater/defroster, standard AM/FM radio, and optional factory-installed air conditioning.
Deep cushioned high-back bucket seats recline 20 degrees and fold forward for easy access to the spacious rear deck. Non-purists can even order an optional 3-speed automatic transmission. But for all that, one of the nicest luxuries of owning a 260-Z is being able to get the same parts and service you’d get if you owned a Datsun economy sedan — from nearly 1000 Datsun dealers, nationwide.
What it all comes down to is this:
The Datsun 260-Z for 1974 epitomizes everything pride and technology can provide. These are the makings of an automotive legend. But don’t just take our word, drive a Datsun… then decide.
DATSUN SAVES
Datsun sets you free.
Drive someplace new. Watch dust curl behind you on a country road. There’s a good life waiting; it’s not at all hard to find.
Surprisingly, many aspects of the energy crisis have made driving more pleasurable. Fewer traffic jams. Less frantic freeways. People are driving slower and enjoying it more.
When it comes to enhancing your own personal mobility, there isn’t another car that fits the bill like a Datsun. It’s sensibly sized and priced, and it saves gasoline. A machine for the times.
So, go ahead. Be free. Discover a new place, see new things, meet new people. Datsun's here to help.
