Franklin Mint 1970 Datsun 240Z

The car was also featured during the induction of former Nissan Motor Corporation USA president Yutaka Katayama into the Automotive Hall of Fame in 1998, and was further used as the basis for a Franklin Mint model wearing the same chassis number. Power is from a numbers-matching 2. 4-liter inline-six paired with a four-speed manual gearbox, and the car is finished in orange over a black interior. The body received a rotisserie restoration in the early 1990s which included sheet metal repair and other work followed by a repaint in factory Orange (918).
