Up for sale is a 1973 Datsun 240 automatic with approx. 104k original miles. Vin# HLS30133697 I have owned this car for about 6yrs. When I bought the car the body was very clean however the car had been painted once before and was faded and the original hood had a bend in the front edge so I decided to replace it with a very nice 280z hood.  I bought the car originally to show my sons how to work on and do minor restore work and if necessary a college investment and since I have one going to college this coming year, this will be a good start.  Most people recognize that these cars are becoming more and sought after.  Engine upgrades, conversions, and modifications make these cars more popular every year.  This 240z is an automatic car which is nice since it is so rare however, some might prefer to own a manual 4 speed .  The car has been garaged majority of the time I have owned it. I drive it on nice days to and from work about 15miles each way. I also have taken it to some local car shows near and around town.  I have all the original parts like the flat top carbs and air cleaner and misc., stuff   I have replaced windshield, rubber gaskets, installed passenger mirror, carpet, dash cover.  I have replaced flat top carbs with round top and chrome air covers.  AC-unit was removed prior to me owning it. I have replaced heater hoses in and out from Z-Source.  Front seats have been recovered.  The car runs and drives good.  The car is pretty straight and solid all the way around. 

Exterior:  Normal wear and tear it is no show car however it does turn heads. Glass on driver side has some pitting from when door was sand blasted. Front bumper not great could be replaced or re chromed.   Rear bumper was re chromed and new rubber installed. New power antenna installed. New gas tank hoses.  Gas tank was cleaned. I have installed new rubber seals. I still have some for the car that have not been installed that will go with like cowl hood seal etc.  Also have a set of spare wheels and tires that came with the car look like 280z wheels with good tires very nice condition. The car currently has new wheels and tires and tire have about 5k on them.  Paint showing wear some minor pits and cracking still looks good. Front bumper see photo. Lots of new emblems and rubber. I do also have a very nice rear Louver for the Z that will go with, I have not installed.Interior:  Good condition overall. showing interior wear some cracking on tops of door panels.  Very nice car not show. New carpet, Seats have been re-upholstered Console has broken plastic around choke lever area.  Most panels good but have some cracks. I have covers and panels that may have not been shown in pictures.  The floor pan on passenger side has a small patch 6x10 and the driver side has one also nothing structural.

I reserve the right to end the auction at any time the car is for sale locally. This car is 40yrs old I have tried to describe this vehicle as accurately and honestly as possible.  Remember it is a used vehicle. As with any vehicle there may be issues that I have overlooked or am unaware of. This 240z is being sold as is basis. A $500.00 deposit within 48 hours of auction end and balance COD within 7 days.

Datsun to unveil second model later this month

Sun, 08 Sep 2013

Datsun, 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.

Datsun reveals new On-Do budget sedan in Russia [w/video]

Tue, 08 Apr 2014

When Nissan revived the Datsun brand name, it essentially hit the "undo" button on the rebranding it undertook decades ago. But this time, the Datsun name is being used solely as a budget brand for developing markets. The reborn marque launched in India this past July with its Go hatchback, returned in September with the Go+ minivan and revealed the Redi-Go concept just last month. And now it's back again with the new On-Do sedan.
Launched in Moscow by CEO Carlos Ghosn, the On-Do was designed and engineered in Japan specifically for the Russian market - Nissan's fifth largest worldwide - where it will be built at the AvtoVaz plant in Togliatti. Decidedly budget-oriented, the Datsun On-Do is a four-door, five-seat econo-box measuring 172 inches long, 67 inches wide and 60 inches tall with an 18.7 cubic-foot trunk which Datsun describes as class-leading. Punctuating an otherwise bland shape is a large front grille and lighting front and rear that looks (and very well might be) bigger than the wheels.
Not that the Datsun On-Do needs a big contact patch to transfer power to the road: motivation is provided by a 1.6-liter engine with a grand total of - wait for it... wait a little longer - 87 horsepower. Which might strike you as a reasonable amount of muscle, considering the 400,000 rubles Datsun is getting for the On-Do (but consider that translates to about $11,300). That's a couple grand more than what Nissan gets for the Micra in that other giant northern country, or about the same amount it gets for the Versa in the US (which sells in Russia for 499k in rubles) - both of which are powered by what is in all likelihood the same 1.6-liter four but producing 109 hp. Of course Russia has different tax rates than the United States or Canada, but with such little power, the Datsun would fall into Russia's lowest tax bracket.
