thanks
I agree. I love Z's and this kit has an insane level of detail for 1973! But I've never warmed up to the ZG extended front end. We never got the ZG in the USA so it just doesn't look "right" for a 240z. However, about all you need are the headlight buckets and bumper from the Safari car to make it a regular 240Z. Not positive because I built that Safari in 1976! You might need the front indicators and since the Safari has only a screen covering the radiator you might have to scratch the grille bars.

The body and hood are stock Z. I'm suprised nobody has offered the conversion parts in resin for this kit.
