 FOR BID IS AN ORIGINAL UNMOLESTED 1974 260Z WITH 50,000 ORIGINAL MILES. ORIGINAL OWNER SOLD TO MY FRIEND IN 2003 WHO IN TURN SOLD TO ME LAST YEAR. VEHICLE WAS SELDOM DRIVEN AND SAT IN GARAGE THROUGHOUT THE 1980`S AND LATE 1990`S. I HAVE A CLEAR CALIFORNIA TITLE IN MY NAME. HERE IS CONDITION OF VEHICLE.

CAR STARTS FINE WITH CHOKE ON. WARMS UP AND RUNS WITH A SLIGHT HESITATION DUE TO DIRTY CARB OR CARBS. ONCE IT IS WARM IT IMMEDIATELY STARTS WITH A QUICK TURN OF KEY. AT SOME POINT THE DISTRIBUTOR DID NOT HAVE JUICE, AND A BYPASS WIRE APEARS TO HAVE BEEN INSTALLED, WHICH IS PROBABLY WHY THE TACHOMETER DOES NOT WORK. I HAVE DRIVEN THE CAR ON THE HIGHWAY AND RUNS FINE. THE TIRES ARE OLD AND SLIGHTLY OUT OF ROUND AND WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED. I INSTALLED A NEW CLUTCH MASTER CYLINDER, AND PURCHASED A NEW SLAVE CYLINDER WHICH HAS NOT BEEN INSTALLED.TRANSMISSION SHIFTS GREAT. THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL MOUNT SEEMS TO BE BAD. IT THUMPS WHEN YOU SHIFT HARD. IT WILL ALSO NEED TO BE REPLACED.A/C AND SMOG PUMPS ARE THERE AND CURRENTLY HAVE THE FAN BELTS CONNECTED AND RUNNING.

THE BODY IS STRAIGHT WITH ABSOLUTELY NO RUST. IT HAS ORIGINAL PAINT, AND HAS NEVER BEEN IN ANY ACCIDENT OR HAD ANY BODY PANELS REPLACED. DRIVER DOOR NEEDS A GOOD PUSH TO CLOSE IT FIRMLY. THE SPARE TIRE AREA SHOWS THE ORIGINAL COLOR AND THE SPARE TIRE IS ORIGINAL AND APPEARS TO HAVE NEVER BEEN USED OR EVEN MOUNTED ON THE VEHICLE.

THE INTERIOR NEEDS WORK ON BOTH SEATS AND THE DASH HAS CRACKED FROM BEING PARKED IN THE SUN FOR A FEW YEARS. NO BROKEN GLASS. THE DOOR WEATHERSTRIPPING NEEDS REPLACING. HEADLINER HANGS JUST A BIT, HARDLY NOTICEABLE.

ALL LIGHTS WORK AND GAUGES AS I STATED WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE TACHOMETER. INTERIOR DOME LIGHT AND REVERSE, HAZAERD, AND CONSOLE LIGHT WORK AS WELL. IGNITION KEY ALSO LOCKS GLOVE BOX, REAR HATCH, AND BOTH DOORS. WIPERS WORK WELL. STEERING WHEEL FOAM HAS DRIED UP AND MAY NEED REPLACING. 

OVERALL A VERY NICE CANDIDATE FOR RESTORATION OR A QUICK PAINT FOR A FLASHY DAILY DRIVER. THANK YOU AND GOOD LUCK.

First new Datsun in decade sketched, set for Indian reveal

Mon, 01 Jul 2013

Nissan's Datsun nameplate revival will begin with two models bound for the Indian market. Nissan has released sketches of a five-door hatchback based on the Micra (codenamed K2) and a top-down view of a hood that could potentially be from a sedan.
The company's press release says all will be revealed on July 15 in New Delhi, India. The Datsun lineup will be first offered in 2014 to that country's ride-deprived residents as well as Indonesia and Russia. Later in 2014, South Africa will join the list.
We've heard Nissan plans for Datsuns to share platforms with company-owned Lada. In January, we heard the projected price tag could be around $3,000 USD to compete with Chinese imports. The official press release (which can be read in full below) says nothing about either of these reports, however.

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 debuts new seven-seat Go+ in Indonesia [w/video]

Wed, 18 Sep 2013

The 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.
