For sale is my '72 Datsun 240Z. I have owned & enjoyed for 10 years and I am the 3rd owner. This is an original paint Lime/Yellow car that now runs & drives great! It has a 260Z motor with a fresh rebuild and Z-Therapy carbs. The engine is smooth & quiet with zero valve train noise or any other noises, problems, leaks or smoking. It SCREAMS! The original block & crank are included in sale. It has a re-surfaced flywheel, new clutch disc, pressure plate, T/O bearing, pilot bearing & original 4-speed trans with new synchros, seals & gaskets. It shifts thru all gears like new! The exhaust system is new. The alternator, starter & fuel pump are new too! All work was done professionally by a local Nissan journeyman mechanic and local Datsun Cub member. The engine & engine bay are clean & leak-free! This 240 was bought new by Dr. David Orth from Murfeesboro Datsun in Nov. '72, and I'm including the original bill of sale, owner's manual, warranty book & touch-up paint (still good). Now for what is left to be done; the seats need to be re-done. It could use new carpet. The dash has (2) cracks and needs replacing or dash cover. That's all interior wise. The headliner is good, steering wheel like new, all interior panels original and very good, original radio & power antenna(working) and included, all gauges work, all lights, turn signals, flashers and rear de-fogger work like they should. As for the body; There is no rust in the battery area or rocker panels. I've had the rear hatch panel cut out & re-placed with an exact reproduction & spot welded in like it was originally. The driver side fr. fender has been repaired and is ready for bodyman. A Datsun purist would replace the fender but it is workable as is. Both rear quarters need patch panels (which I am including) and the driver side has been riveted in place and ready to be welded in. The passenger side front fender needs patching and the patch is included as shown. The driver floor has (2) small places (2"X4") total that need patching. The front sub-frames need plates welded in but in no way weak or structurally defective, just small rusted out areas! The rear bumper & over-riders are newly re-chromed! The front bumper is OK, but should be re-chromed to be perfect. The odometer shows 66,000 miles and I believe to be correct but who knows. This car completed with 4-6 thousand dollars of bodywork & paint is a 10-12 thousand dollar car, or drive it and work on it as you go! Call me if you want to inspect & drive. I have nothing to hide from you about this car and if you see/drive it you will buy it! Call me, I'm Paul @ (502) 552-0220

Autoblog Podcast #339:
Roadkill pits every project car against each other
Sat, 22 Feb 2014The guys behind Motor Trend's monthly Roadkill series have collected nine of their favorite project cars from their videos and pitted them against each other in a battle royale to determine a winner. It's 44 minutes long, but it's completely worth the investment of time.
The cars run the gamut from a 1973 Chevrolet Ramp Truck, a 1975 AMC Pacer and a legitimately impressive 1967 Chevy Camaro, and they are pitted against each other to see which is the fastest around an autocross course. The drivers include Roadkill's two hosts and Motor Trend's Johnny Lieberman and Carlos Lago. It's reminiscent of the best episodes of Top Gear and worth a watch.
So it's the weekend - the perfect time to relax. Grab your preferred beverage, get comfortable and enjoy 44 minutes of some seriously ratty but utterly cool project cars as they are throttled within an inch of their lives (or past it). Scroll down to check out the video.
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.
