This 280z is dated January of 1975 which is the first month of the 280z production. It's my Daughters first car which is driven daily. I got it through a friend who got it through a trade. I have 2 Bill of Sales of previous ownerships. I also have a copy of the window sticker (matching serial numbers) to prove that this is a Southern States car that was bought new in Ga. I began restoration/preservation in July of 2012 which included new shocks all around,strut bars and rubber,sway bar kit front and back,front brake hoses, calipers with brake pads,brake manifold reservoir, lower control arm bushings, rack and pinion boots, ball joints,tie rod ends, car alignment, exhaust gaskets, exhaust from the manifold back with quiet muffler,electric fan with temperature control on the radiator,all heater hoses including the hard to get hoses under the dash, vacume hoses most have been replaced, complete tune up with air and fuel filters,upper and lower radiator hoses, battery, new dash cover the original has some cracks,weather stripping on doors and on two small windows,hood bumpers and under the hood wind/rain seals,custom factory cut & sewn carpet front and rear with padding, floor mats, drivers seat reupholstered, custom plastic welded speaker boxes, very little rust located in the usual areas mostly surface rust on floor boards and rear lift gate all fixed before paint job in March 2013. Rust preventer paint put on floor pans and under carriage also sprayed undercoating to cover white paint overspray. Painted under the hood and door jams, painted the tail light assemblies. Car has full size spare with original jack, chocks, and tools. I also include original owners manual and Datsun touch up paint. I probably forgot to mention a few things but all in all this is a great restoration car / street racer or everyday driver. I am selling only for my daughter to get a newer car for college. I will include a new Stainless Steel performance muffler with slanted tip, original radiator fan with shroud, original air intake tube, new key start switch, painted fiberglass tail fin, and two 3" orange stripes I thought might look good on the drivers side fender. I also have most of the reciept to prove that top grade parts were used. Thank you for looking and good luck.

This father and son duo terrorize the UK countryside in Datsun 240Z pair
Wed, 12 Nov 2014The Datsun 240Z got a lot of things right when it was introduced, with handsome styling, strong performance and a reasonably affordable price. And while the coupes grew a strong fan base in the US, they remained quite a rarity in the UK. Decades later, a father and son in England have latched onto the car and bonded over their shared love for two completely opposite takes on this Japanese GT
There's already quite a collection of exotics in Mel Streek's garage, and his rat rod 240Z, which he calls the Ratsun, definitely doesn't fit with the rest. On the outside, the Datsun looks ready to fall apart, but it's mechanically perfect underneath. Alternatively, Mel's son, Ollie, has a completely different take for his Z with its perfect, shining paint.
Both Zs sound amazing, though. They have a mechanical, somewhat course exhaust note that's intoxicating to hear. You can definitely tell there's some work going on under the hood. Check out this video from Petrolicious for a father and son who both find something to love in these classic Japanese coupes.
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:

Datsun previews new budget sedan for Russia [w/video]
Thu, 13 Mar 2014Nobody does cars on the cheap quite like the Renault-Nissan Alliance. The former part of the equation already has its Dacia brand of cost-effective, no-frills vehicles that have become a favorite of Top Gear co-host James May, and last summer, the latter revived its Datsun nameplate for a budget brand of its own.
The reborn Datsun 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 given us our first look at an upcoming budget sedan developed specifically for the Russian market.
The as-yet unnamed vehicle (which we'll bet will incorporate the word "go" into its nameplate somehow) is set to debut on April 4, where it will launch the Datsun brand in Russia. Few details are available at this point, but the low-cost sedan was designed in Japan to offer Russian drivers "an engaging driving experience, peace of mind ownership and accessibility at the right and transparent price, with a competitive Total Cost of Ownership."
