I had the 240Zs predecessor, the 1969 2000 Roadster. It was super fun but there were significant limitations on that car and the 240Z update got almost everything right. My girlfriend's dad had a 1971 240Z and I got to drive it a lot. The 240Z OEM carbs were crap so you want Solex or Weber. The auto trans really needs to go, so shop for a 5 speed. The engines are butt simple to work on and a reliable build adding 50hp would really wake her up for not too much $$.

Ask him what he wants for it, offer half, meet in the middle and take it home.
