HLS30-39761 EU market/ matching engine

HLS30-39761 is a very special car. It is one of the +/- 70 LHD Final Euro spec cars that were produced in 1971. In this article on our website is a story about the development of this car and what does make it so special.

The car was delivered new in Belgium and stayed there in the family. I bought the car from Sander Claes. He bought it from his uncle to restore it, but the task was too big, and he chose to buy a car that was ready. As all EU cars, this body was also very bad, it costed an enormous amount of hours to get the body like new! If it had been a US market car, we would have not restored it, but being such an extremely special car made it worth the efforts for us. Between 1971 and 1973 there only 1000 LHD Final EU spec 240Zs were registered. Most of them went to France.
Like all the cars we restore, this one has its matching engine, L24-051424.
To make the doors close properly, we used door rubbers from our own production.
