1971 Datsun 240Z Series 1

On February 23rd, 1971 Fred Moore purchased this Datsun brand new. This is a true one owner car, that I purchased from Fred over a month ago. In 1988, it was the last time the Datsun was driven, Fred parked it, because it had a universal joint going out. It sat in his garage until a month ago, untouched.

I have not tried to start the car, it does turn over. this car is super original, and was re-painted in the early 80's Silver. it is originally Lime Green.

Body:
There is a little rust in the car, but floor pans and spare tire well seem to be perfect.
There is a dent in the driver door, I think this can be removed easily.
All glass is original Datsun glass.
In the late 70's, Fred's wife backed into the car, at that time, an orange fender and hood from a 1973 240Z was put on.

Interior:
The interior is in amazing original condition.
The driver seat shows all of the wear, and the carpet is a little faded. Besides that, the interior is pristine.
There are no cracks in the dash.
Car still has original AM radio.
Driver door panel is a little curled at the bottom.
The original jack as well as the original wheel chocks are behind the seat in original position.
The tire tools are in their proper bag.
I was told when you bought these cars, you got a quart of touch up paint, which there is a quart of paint in the car.

Tires/Wheels:
The original Series 1 hubcaps are on the car, although the rims that are on the car are not the originals. But, I do have the 4 original rims.
The tires are old and dry rotted.

Drive Train:
Under the hood, the car is completely original, and does turn over.
Transmission shifts
The car has very little brakes.
I have not tried to start car.

This car deserves a complete restoration.

The build date was December 1970.

This car has the vents on the rear deck lid, instead of behind the side windows.

This is a no reserve auction.

I can help load the car for the shipper, buyer is responsible for paying for shipping.

Call me with any questions at 859-621-0445.

Datsun debuts new seven-seat Go+ in Indonesia [w/video]

Wed, 18 Sep 2013

The Datsun name may have long since been replaced by Nissan, but the old brand is making a comeback - in certain markets, at least. Nissan relaunched the Datsun brand in July as its new budget brand for developing markets with the debut of the Go hatchback, and has now followed up with the addition of the larger Go+.
Set to be built in Indonesia at Nissan's plant in Purwakarta, the Go+ debuts today in the capital of Jakarta as the second model in the new Datsun lineup. The seven-passenger minivan features flexible seating in a compact form 13 feet long, powered by an unspecified 1.2-liter engine mated to a five-speed manual transmission.
Nissan isn't saying much else about the model, but hopes the new Datsun twins will account for half of its sales in Indonesia within three years. The low price target for both models - set to come in at less than 100 million rupiah ($8,700) - ought to help it get there. The lineup is then scheduled to reach other markets, starting with India, Russia and South Africa next year.

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.

Fiat contemplating sub-brand to compete with Dacia, Datsun

Tue, 05 Feb 2013

You 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."
