I know I'm gonna' get a whoopin' for this, but....

I looked at a '73 240Z today (I've always liked the body style and the ride
since I first had my hands on one to try out in the 70's) and it looked to
me like it had twin SU carbs.

Did it?? The owner's brother said "We're only asking $2000, and my brother
just spent over $500 on the carbs." I just said, " if those are SU's, I
bought the book." (Of course, I haven't had to use 'the book' yet, either!!
<VBG>) 

Car was a bit rough for the money, but the carbs sure did look like the ones
on the MGA.
