I purchased this car from the original female owner who bought the car new on May 1, 1972 from San Jose Datsun. I have the original San Jose Datsun New Car Guarantee Certificate, Warranty and Service Book, Hitachi Radio Guide, Datsun Air Conditioning Manual, Datsun 240Z Owners Manual, and Dealer Additional Equipment Sticker. I also have the Original Window Sticker and a copy of the Original Owner Title. The vehicle is currently registered and in my name per California DMV rules. Mostly original #110 paint on the car with a few areas of re-paint. The rear hatch was dented in a parking lot mishap back in the 1980's. The body shop used a lacquer paint back in the day which is now checking. There was no damage to the taillight panel. This car has a white interior that is in excellent condition for age. The dash is in good shape with two small cracks. All gauges working ( temp guage works intermittently) as well as electric antenna. This car still has the original Koito headlights installed. The headliner is in very good shape as are the door panels. Windows roll up and down. Air Conditioning is all present but needs compressor re-installed and some R12 added. The car was parked by the original owner in 2008 and was towed to a shop where it underwent a clean up and mechanical check. The master brake cylinder was replaced along with the front brake calipers and pads. The rear brake cylinders were also replaced along with brake shoes. We replaced the battery and completed a tune up and oil change. This Z car had been on a California DMV non-op since 2008 and is now currently registered, insured and in my name. I currently have two other Z cars with performance goodies installed on them. This car is much too original and nice to change in any way therefore I am selling it to someone who will appreciate it for the beautiful original survivor that it is. Feel free to visit my photo bucket page and look through 150 pictures of this car. There are 96 pictures in the album and on the last page there is a link to a sub-album with an additional 54 pictures.
This Z car is about as rust free as any Z car that has not been on a rotisserie. The paint is good for a 40 year old car but it does have the usual scratches and minor dings along the sides and nose. This is a great example of an early Z car and it will sell with no reserve and at a very low starting price. There is NO buy it now price. I have tried to describe this car in such a way that the buyer will receive a car that is in better condition than described. Car is sold as is - where is. No warranties expressed or implied. Yes, after full payment is received, I can store the car for a few weeks for transportation or overseas delivery. I have sold several cars to overseas buyers and am comfortable doing so. Contact me prior to bidding if you have little or no E-Bay feedback. If not your bid will probably be ignored and cancelled. Please contact me with any questions or to set up a viewing of the car.

Subaru Legacy pitted against Roadkill project cars
Fri, 05 Sep 2014There's an evergreen debate among auto enthusiasts about whether they would prefer to have the latest and greatest car of today or a certified classic from yesteryear. What if you had to further define that, though, and the choice was between a brand new 2015 Subaru Legacy or a turbocharged Datsun 240Z with a hatch that wouldn't close? Roadkill aimed to find out that and more in one of its best videos to date.
According to the hosts, Subaru came to them, handed over some money and challenged Roadkill's project cars against its latest Legacy. The result is every bit as good (or better) than any automotive-themed show you could find on television.
Things start simple with a figure-eight race in a rodeo arena with the Subaru taking on Roadkill's 1968 Ford Ranchero, originally built for ice racing. From there the Legacy races a 1968 Dodge Charger with no windows around and off-road rally stage. Finally, the Subie goes head-to-head against the Rotsun, the aforementioned turbocharged 240Z, through an abandoned neighborhood. Plus, there's a bonus drag race challenging them all.
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:

Nissan IDx 'in the plan' for production, needs support from fans [w/poll]
Wed, 15 Jan 2014If there's a trend in the auto industry we can firmly get behind, it's the small, light and affordable rear-drive coupe. The positive critical reception to the Scion FR-S and Subaru BRZ twins has encouraged other manufacturers to look at building their own rear drivers, and even a few to show actual concept cars based on the idea. The Chevrolet Code 130R from 2012 and more recently, the Nissan IDx twins that were first shown at the 2013 Tokyo Motor Show both come to mind, as does the brand-new Kia GT4 Stinger Concept.
Nissan trotted out the IDx Nismo and the IDx Freeflow for another showing in Detroit and we'll admit to being totally smitten with both cars. Again. The duo draw inspiration from the iconic Datsun 510, a lightweight, affordable rear-driver that remains a cult favorite decades after production ended.
Now, a report from our friends at AutoWeek reveals that we may, possibly, hopefully see a production IDx, provided fans make a strong enough case for it. "It's in the plan," Nissan product boss Andy Palmer told AW. According to the report, Palmer said the IDx is "into the first sage of the development process. The next stage is project validation and then looking at the business case. It's no one's intent to waste millions of the company's money, so obviously we have a good feeling about this one."
