remained there until a few years ago when a family member brought the car to
California and stored it in his garage. I purchased the car from the original
family and conducted a complete maintenance review of the car to get it back on
the road. The car was originally orange
and was repainted many years ago to it’s current blue color. The interior is black. I have had many 240Z cars in the past and
currently have three of them. The
underside of this car is clean and rust free.
This Z car runs and drives very well and would make a great Series 1 car
to drive or restore. The paint is old and there are a couple of small areas
where the paint is bubbling. The hatch
area is solid and very nice. The floors are solid and rust free. Review photos of the both outside and
underneath. This is not a show car or a perfect car by any means but it is a
solid foundation for restoration or drive as is until your ready. Yes, I drive
the car and would drive it across the state. No, I would not drive it to New York
because it is a 40 year old car and I like to fly. I will work with overseas buyers and have
sold several cars outside the US. This
car is being sold with no reserve and a very reasonable starting price. I
reserve the right to end the auction early if I receive a price that I feel is
reasonable. Pictures of the car can be viewed on my Photobucket link. E-mail me for a link to my photo bucket. Please feel free to call me to ask questions or view the car prior to end of auction. My number is 916-764-9759. Thanks, Mike. |

Fiat contemplating sub-brand to compete with Dacia, Datsun
Tue, 05 Feb 2013You can add Fiat to the admittedly short list of automakers considering a low-cost brand to rival Dacia. The inexpensive Eastern European brand from Renault-Nissan has performed on the balance sheet like a premium model line, and the money the alliance is taking off the table is encouraging other players to deal themselves in. Pretty soon Nissan's Datsun sub-brand will join the Dacia party, going on sale in Russia, Indonesia and India and will claim even more rubles, rupiahs and rupees for the parent company. Volkswagen recently said it will make a decision this year on a budget line for the Chinese market. With the euthanasia of Lancia and plans to move the Fiat brand upmarket, company CEO Sergio Marchionne wonders aloud to Automotive News Europe whether there could be room for a new budget brand underneath Fiat.
We're told that the initiative has been in the idea box for five years and even moved to the stage of name considerations, like Innocenti, but worries about profit kept it from realization. If such a range were to be developed, Marchionne says it couldn't be built in Italy and stay within budget, and the company is "analyzing its manufacturing capacity outside of Europe to see if a low-cost brand is viable."
Datsun previews new budget sedan for Russia [w/video]
Thu, 13 Mar 2014Nobody 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."
Malaise Era All-Stars
Fri, 17 May 2013A few weeks ago, we bid a fond happy 40th anniversary to the automotive dark ages of 1973-84 that have come to be known as "The Malaise Era" - the performance ice-age when 160 horsepower was a lot and a 0-60 time of under 10 seconds was remarkable. Like music in the 1980s, everything in automobiledom didn't suck, however. There were a few bright spots. Here are five of our favorites:
