I Highly suggest looking coming out and looking at the car before bidding. THE GOOD: The car is a good driver it was owned by a mechanic before me so most everything works, Lights, turn signals, tac, speedo, wipers, blue tooth radio, rebuilt round top su Carbs, newer brakes, New tires about 3-5000 miles. The car has had rust repair on the floor boards( patched welded) and covered with undercoating looks ok but solid. The rocker panels, one fender and the bumper delete were all welded in and bondoed. The paint is a newer duplicolor paint with 3-4 coats of clear . Looks good front 10' off . The BLack strips are decals. The front and rear window seals have been replaced . The AC actually does blow cold (surprise) . It runs and drives fine , The exhaust is newer but a bit loud is straight with a CHerry bomb Resonator and Chrome tip. The interior is in good shape there is a small tear in driver's seat . The door panels are nice but they are from a 280z and the door lock holes did not line up so there are 2 holes on each door panel . The interior was white and has been changed over to black . Many of the pieces were changed over... door panels, new headliner, visors, seats and some plastic were dyed black. It has been 2 years and still looks good. The car runs great I have driven it a good bit and the PO drove it on a couple long trips. Like all old z cars it has a bit of exhaust smell. the tail lights and every opening in the rear needs to be plugged, I haven't had time to do this. The car Starts right up and drives great. The rims are old Westerns ( much like the Panasports or Konig rewind but older) Tires are great. Has newer carpet kit installed but not the best of quality. The Bad One of the fenders did not get the best of Patches and bondo treatment and could be replaced. The bumper delete is kinda wavy. The Paint job is OK paint was decent and it was wet sanded between coats but it is definitely driver quality enough to impress from 10-15 feet off but there are imperfections. I bought the car for a friend overseas and then he saw a 240 I had that he wanted more . I have too many z cars so this one has to go . IF you have any questions or want to see it you can give me a call 828 242 6181 . I do have it for sale locally and reserve the right to end the auction early. I will try to post more pictures

Datsun reveals new On-Do budget sedan in Russia [w/video]
Tue, 08 Apr 2014When 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.
Fiat contemplating sub-brand to compete with Dacia, Datsun
Tue, 05 Feb 2013You can add Fiat to the admittedly short list of automakers considering a low-cost brand to rival Dacia. The inexpensive Eastern European brand from Renault-Nissan has performed on the balance sheet like a premium model line, and the money the alliance is taking off the table is encouraging other players to deal themselves in. Pretty soon Nissan's Datsun sub-brand will join the Dacia party, going on sale in Russia, Indonesia and India and will claim even more rubles, rupiahs and rupees for the parent company. Volkswagen recently said it will make a decision this year on a budget line for the Chinese market. With the euthanasia of Lancia and plans to move the Fiat brand upmarket, company CEO Sergio Marchionne wonders aloud to Automotive News Europe whether there could be room for a new budget brand underneath Fiat.
We're told that the initiative has been in the idea box for five years and even moved to the stage of name considerations, like Innocenti, but worries about profit kept it from realization. If such a range were to be developed, Marchionne says it couldn't be built in Italy and stay within budget, and the company is "analyzing its manufacturing capacity outside of Europe to see if a low-cost brand is viable."
Datsun to unveil second model later this month
Sun, 08 Sep 2013Datsun, 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.
