This is a gorgeous 1970 Series One 240Z that has been completely restored and received tender loving care for the nine years I have owned it. I have added some desirable upgrades to the car but it is still primarily a stock 1970 Z, only better!

The car is HLS 30-04268 with its original engine L24-007141. It is 904 white with blue interior. The car underwent a bare metal paint job in 2005-2006. At this time the engine was overhauled and a 5 speed manual transmission was added. The car has a Motorsport header and Z Therapy SU carburetors with polished "Euro" balance tube and a 280ZX electronic distributor. 
The seats and door panels were recovered by Seatz manufacturing. New vinyl, headliner and carpet were also installed by Seatz over new insulation.  
I have added the Arizona Z Car aluminum cross flow radiator, cast aluminum oil pan and sport springs. The car runs cool in the hottest weather. It has a new brake master cylinder, new front discs, calipers, rear drums, and metal brake lines. All of the bushings have been replaced as well as the rear suspension spindle pins.
The dashboard and console were restored by Just Dashes and the wiring was upgraded with "Datsun Dave's" 280 ZX alternator upgrade, headlight relay upgrade, parking light harness and side marker upgrade ( the forward side marker lights flash with the turn signals). The car also has the Motorsport solid state fuse box that uses blade type fuses. 
The AC compressor and expansion valve were replaced. It also has a Honda blower motor which blows like a hurricane. 
It has a Hitachi AM-FM radio, and Retro Belt retractable lap and shoulder belts.
The car has new mag wheels and a front spoiler. However the original front valence comes with the car as well as a set of early "D" hubcaps.
This is truly a beautiful early Z that is fun to drive and a real time capsule with modern upgrades. Feel free to contact me for more information at wfogey53@gmail.com.

Datsun expands low-cost revival with new Mi-Do in Moscow [w/video]

Fri, 29 Aug 2014

Those who were disappointed when Datsun changed its name to Nissan over three decades ago may have been pleased to see the marque revived last year, even as a budget brand. Nissan's counterpart to its ally Renault's Dacia budget brand, Datsun has been steadily expanding its lineup of low-cost transportation for developing markets with the debut of the Go hatchback in India, the Go+ minivan in Indonesia and the On-Do sedan in Russia. And now it has returned to Moscow to reveal its fourth model, the Mi-Do.
Based closely on the On-Do sedan (which itself is based on the Lada Granta) the Mi-Do takes on a five-door hatchback bodystyle but with no more frills. It uses the same front-drive chassis with the same wheelbase as the sedan, but its chopped tail makes it a good foot and a half shorter overall. Into that compact shape, Datsun has fitted dual airbags, ABS and... well, that's about it. It's got a 1.6-liter, eight-valve inline-four kicking out a grand total of 87 horsepower to either a five-speed manual or a four-speed automatic. Bare bones, this is.
While delivery of the first On-Do sedans commences next month (with the first example going to an IT specialist in Omsk), the Mi-Do is set to begin delivery early next year. Scope out the video and press release below from the Mi-Do's reveal at the Moscow Motor Show.

Datsun previews new budget sedan for Russia [w/video]

Thu, 13 Mar 2014

Nobody does cars on the cheap quite like the Renault-Nissan Alliance. The former part of the equation already has its Dacia brand of cost-effective, no-frills vehicles that have become a favorite of Top Gear co-host James May, and last summer, the latter revived its Datsun nameplate for a budget brand of its own.
The reborn Datsun launched in India this past July with its Go hatchback, returned in September with the Go+ minivan and revealed the Redi-Go concept just last month. And now it's given us our first look at an upcoming budget sedan developed specifically for the Russian market.
The as-yet unnamed vehicle (which we'll bet will incorporate the word "go" into its nameplate somehow) is set to debut on April 4, where it will launch the Datsun brand in Russia. Few details are available at this point, but the low-cost sedan was designed in Japan to offer Russian drivers "an engaging driving experience, peace of mind ownership and accessibility at the right and transparent price, with a competitive Total Cost of Ownership."

This father and son duo terrorize the UK countryside in Datsun 240Z pair

Wed, 12 Nov 2014

The Datsun 240Z got a lot of things right when it was introduced, with handsome styling, strong performance and a reasonably affordable price. And while the coupes grew a strong fan base in the US, they remained quite a rarity in the UK. Decades later, a father and son in England have latched onto the car and bonded over their shared love for two completely opposite takes on this Japanese GT
There's already quite a collection of exotics in Mel Streek's garage, and his rat rod 240Z, which he calls the Ratsun, definitely doesn't fit with the rest. On the outside, the Datsun looks ready to fall apart, but it's mechanically perfect underneath. Alternatively, Mel's son, Ollie, has a completely different take for his Z with its perfect, shining paint.
Both Zs sound amazing, though. They have a mechanical, somewhat course exhaust note that's intoxicating to hear. You can definitely tell there's some work going on under the hood. Check out this video from Petrolicious for a father and son who both find something to love in these classic Japanese coupes.
