NO RESERVE!!!!

For years parts were collected "just in case" a beloved 1972 Datsun 240z needed something replaced. Twenty years ago "just in case" became "for its restoration". Now that restoration is finally complete & what remains is "in the way". 

Our Horde Is Your Reward!

Up for sale is a 1972 Datsun 240Z project car. This car was last running and driving in 1994. At that time, I was moving it across the yard when the brakes failed and I ran into my van and damaging the passenger side headlight bucket. Except for some gauges in the dash which needed some minor wiring work, most everything else on it worked. I drove it inside my parent’s barn & parked it with the intent of fixing it up at some point. Unfortunately, life & other projects got in the way so it sat there for the next 20 years until I pulled it out to take these pictures. I haven’t tried to start it as it will need new fluids and hoses, battery, etc. It is however a pretty solid car for someone looking to put in the time to make it nice. The sheet metal is solid, and although the interior is disassembled, it still smells fresh and clean with no evidence of critters invading it and making it all crappy. I‘m not sure what all is missing, but I do know it does not have a cowl panel or front turn signals. I think everything else is there, including the hood. The car comes with a complete used dash wiring harness in addition to the one in it. The car is an automatic. It has Italian mag wheels of some sort but, unfortunately, not all of the tires hold air. It has a clear Pennsylvania title. I can help with delivery within 200 miles for a reasonable fee.

 I also have two additional engines and a 4 speed available separately if interested.

NO RESERVE!!!!

Datsun officially reborn with Go model for India [w/video]

Mon, 15 Jul 2013

In 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's lackluster initial sales fall below Tata Nano

Wed, 15 Oct 2014

When Tata introduced the Nano back in 2008, everyone was amazed at how cheap it was. They called it a game changer, but no game was changed. In fact, it took Tata five years to sell the 250,000 units it had the capacity to build in a single year. As it turns out, even buyers in what economists call "developing markets" like India aren't necessarily interested in buying an ultra-cheap automobile. And now it appears that Nissan may be falling into the same trap.
A little over a year ago, Nissan revived its old moniker Datsun to serve as a budget brand - similar to what ally Renault did with Dacia. Its lineup (consisting of models like the Go hatchback, Go+ minivan, On-Do sedan and Mi-Do hatch) is largely based on old architecture, packaged with little more than basic equipment and sold at rock-bottom prices. But Bloomberg reports that, even in the brand's core markets like India and Indonesia, the new Datsuns haven't been selling.
According to local industry figures, Datsun has sold fewer than 10,000 units of its $5,100 Go hatchbacks in India since its introduction back in March. Maruti Suzuki, by comparison, sells twice that many of its similarly priced Alto hatchbacks every month. In fact, after peaking in April, Datsun only sold 607 units in India this past July, dipping 77 percent to drop below even the number of Nanos which Tata sold that month.
