Description[]
The Datsun 240Z is a Hot Wheels casting based on the real car of the same name and was recreated in 1:64 scale by Hot Wheels designer Phil Riehlman. There is also a similar customized version called the Custom Datsun 240Z and other smilier one called the Custom '72 Datsun 240Z (RLC).
Not pictured on the packaging, this casting features the headlight cowls found on the racing versions of this generation.
