Interesting Piece of JDM x Italian Supercar History
By Ben Schaffer
The Real JDM
During my past trip to Japan I had dinner with one of my friends who is a famous aero parts designer. In the course of the evening’s conversation on design he schooled me on something that I should have known but never did…and it blew my mind!
Did you all know that the Lamborghini Diablo uses Z32 300ZX (Fairlady Z) headlights? I consider myself to be a bit of a car nerd and I had no idea of this fascinating fact, which looking back is quite an embarrassment because I should know things like this!!!

Antonio Alvendia
From compact commuter cars and SUVs, to GTs and supercars, most in our “scene” have seen just about every imaginable car “upgraded”- with the possible exception (in my case) of Zach Dunn’s 2007 Volkswagen Passat.

This wacky conversion happened back in 1973, so as the seller states, "get over it." The Oldsmobile Vista Cruiser roof definitely gives it a funky P1800 wagon vibe, and you know it would be fun to piss off purists at shows. Still, the auction ended with no bids, so maybe it will take a while for this weird Mopar to find a home. In another shot after the jump, it looks like it had a Daytona-style nose on at one point, which almost managed to make it look like a 300ZX.
