1973 Datsun 240Z This is my 1973 datsun 240Z. This really is a sweet little Japanese classic car thats looks cool from every angle. It has the original numbers matching L24 motor, and 4speed from the factory. I drove it all summer last year. It runs great and always starts right up. I does need new fuel lines, as i believe, from setting around all winter they may be clogged. The Interior was restored a few years ago. I does need a good vacuuming, which i will do before I sell her. The body is in good condition except for a couple paint chips(on the passenger side fender) and a rust spot (on the passenger side door.(Which you can see in the picture). Tires in pretty good shape, I will be replacing the left front flat tire. I dont think i have overlooked anything. If you want a Z car, thats in great shape(and dont want to spend a fortune) then this might be the Z for you. Overall this is a badass little car. The car is located in Columbus OH, and can be seen if you call and arrange a time with me. There is a $500 non-refundable deposit due within 24hrs. of auction end. (paypal preferred if possible) The remaining balance to be paid within 7 business days. And car picked up within 21days of auction end, unless discussed with me otherwise. I can store car for a short time if you need. Car is listed locally, so i reserve the right to end auction early should the car sell. I can be reached at 614-725-6402 (Jon) Call with any ????s Thank you.....

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:

37K miles in a 1967 Datsun Roadster
Tue, 11 Mar 2014When we think of comfy, long-distance road cars, there are a few obvious choices. A Mercedes-Benz S-Class, Bentley Continental GT or, assuming fuel efficiency isn't paramount, a Range Rover are all good options for a road trip. But what if that road trip was 37,000 miles? Maybe something more reliable but still comfortable, then, like a Honda Accord. What about a 1967 Datsun Roadster?
As insane as it sounds, Scott Fisher is doing just that, running a Datsun 1600 Roadster across North America and racking up 13,500 miles in his first three months on the road. His total journey will see him pile over 37,000 miles on his red convertible. The car is lightly modified, but most of the work is for the sake of reliability and comfort, with a five-speed manual 'box, an upgraded radiator and electronic ignition.
Fisher's trip hasn't been all smooth, with a few typical bits of trouble. He also ran into some deer in Utah, quite literally, clipping one of the animals, which delivered quite a bit of damage to the passenger's front fender (hence the rear three-quarter view in our lead shot). Still, the car seems to be holding up well, as shown in this latest video from Petrolicious.
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."
