I thought that all the 240's had the tools behind the seats under
plastic storage covers and the storage bins under the rear carpet with
metal lids started with the 74 260z. On my microfiche it shows both
versions being used on 240's. Anyone know when the change over was
made from external to internal tool storage?
Also, were the speakers in all the 240's in the same place as the
260's ( 1 over and one behind the strut tower on each side) or were
some of the early Z's in a different place?
TIA

IIRC only the earliest 240Z, "series 1" as some call it, lacked the bins
in the rear deck beneath the carpet.
I had one of these cars, it's production date on the door was Nov. 1970.
My 71 and 73 both have the bins.

I have never had a Z with stock speakers so I can't address that one.
