Anyone stashing a vintage car has a common fear — rodents. They can quickly take cars from "in-need-of-plates" to "in-need-of-complete-teardown." Luckily, this Datsun 240Z owner discovers chipmunks didn't destroy anything, just used his exhaust as storage for pilfered dog food.

Here is a image that cault my eye while browsing the web. I believe the first car on the left is a Nissan Skyline or a 2000GT as wikipedia says. The car on the right is a Datsun 240z.

A nice little Datsun 240z fitted with a Toyota 2JZ engine. It looks quite standard from the outside but its mightily quick, it manages 144mph in 9.2 seconds!

Well whaddya know. Randy Rodriguez, one of the key designers of the Nissan 370Z, is an S30 fan at heart, according to this Canadian Press article. He’s owned 10 of them, in fact, and currently drives 1977 280Z that he restored himself. He says that his sketches were heavily influenced by the 240Z and the new GT-R. You might take issue with his statement that the 240Z and 350Z were the best Zs, but it’s good to know there such die-hard Datsun enthusiasts  working at Nissan.
