Up for auction is my 1972 Datsun 240Z. The car is in good condition, it runs, drives shifts well, and stops. I used it as a daily driver for a year until I purchased a new car in December 2013. Now it's a weekend car and garage kept. All bushings on the front suspension have been replaced along with the motor and transmission mounts. Several gaskets, brakes hoses, brake booster, etc. (installed a new larger 1973 booster for better braking still have the old 72 core) I replaced the oil pan gasket too but don't think it seated well it can be reinstalled it's good quality rubber coated, I purchased a set of new ball joints but have not installed them because they were not really needed. I drove in the hot Arizona summer (105 -110 degrees) in heavy traffic and the car does not overheat. I've done quite a bit to the car since purchased. The original radio and antennae are still installed both work (I installed a modern speaker in place of the paper one and still have the original) the air conditioning needs to be reinstalled (needs new pressure hoses ). I have the warranty card from the original owner. This car originally had a white interior with white vinyl top. The top was removed prior to my purchasing. I changed the interior due to dryness and sun damage. A few interior items are still needed such as a glove box liner,dash or dash cap, headliner,and weather strip kit. The body on the car is in great shape but does have a couple of minor flaws, and the windshield has a crack starting from a rock chip. The previous owner let the car sit in the desert sun water was able to leak in to the driver side floor so a small rust hole is at the drain plug area. There is a small rust spot on the passenger fender, and the lip of the rear passenger wheel trim. (see pictures) The under carriage is solid there is absolutely no rust or damage in any of the usual structure areas. I didn't paint the car because I wanted to keep it original.. (no bondo, no wrecks) This is a great car and will be even better once fully restored. Thank you for viewing my auction and happy bidding! Relisted do to nonpaying bidder please bid only if you are going to buy. Bidders with no feed back must email me prior to bidding or bid will be cancelled. On Jul-06-14 at 19:12:27 PDT, seller added the following information: Also included is a new Hot Start Electronic ignition conversion kit. (new points, condenser, spark plugs, plug wires, distributor, and cap are already installed) |

Datsun debuts new seven-seat Go+ in Indonesia [w/video]
Wed, 18 Sep 2013The 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 officially reborn with Go model for India [w/video]
Mon, 15 Jul 2013In March of 2012, Nissan announced the return of its historic Datsun brand. Datsun used to represent the Nissan brand in a number of markets, but its badge hasn't been worn on a new model since 1981. In 2013, though, it has been relaunched as the Japanese manufacturer's budget offering in the emerging markets of India and Russia.
The model that will lead that charge, at least in India, is the Go, a car that pays tribute to the very first Datsun, the DAT-GO.
The operative term with the Datsun brand is: "budget offering." Don't step inside the Go and expect beautiful hides or brushed metals (it's being sold in India, after all). The instrument cluster features a simple speedometer, while the five-speed manual and the center stack above it are rather barren. It's not without luxuries, though, as iPod-style connectivity is available through a Mobile Docking Station.
Datsun to unveil second model later this month
Sun, 08 Sep 2013Datsun, Nissan's new sub-brand for emerging markets, has announced plans to unveil its second model. Its first, the Go, was unveiled almost two months ago, and promised affordable, connected motoring for five in a handsome hatchback body. Datsun is following that up with a pair of new models for Indonesia.
The first of these two new vehicles will be shown on September 17 in Jakarta, eschewing the typical auto show debut. It's targeted at so-called "risers," the nickname for a group of highly aspirational customers in the Indonesian market. Datsun developed it locally with help from Nissan, and it'll cost under 100 million Indonesian rupiah (about $8,900 at today's rates).
We'll have the full boatload of information on the newest member of the Datsun family when it debuts on September 17. Scroll on to read the full press release from Datsun.
