Hello and thanks for taking a look at my car! What I have up for sale is a 1975 Datsun 280Z, that has had a L28ET engine swamped into it. Also as you can see, the front end of the car has undergone the ZG conversion, along with the addition of the fender flares and mirrors. In addition, the bumpers were replaced as well.

This car has a had a laundry list of work done to it, spanning over four years after its purchase locally. This car is running as of now and I am using it as a daily driver. If you are curious to why I am selling it, its because of that sole reason. Since my primary car recently broke down, I do not want to rely on my Z as my primary transportation. I always intended it as my weekend car, not a daily driver. This is a fantastic car, looks and engine wise, and I will attempt to list what is the most important things from the car, because a complete part list would be too much list.

Exterior:

Fairlady ZG Front End

ZG Fender Flares

Fender Mirrors

MSA Fiberglass Rear Bumper

HID Headlights

Konig Rewinds Rims (16X7 4X114.3)

Interior:

Pioneer CD Player(Includes AUX port)

Aftermarket Speakers( Located in Trunk area)

AEM Boost Controller

Engine/Mechanical:

Rebuilt L28ET engine, to include new parts such as distrubutor, battery, alternator, and coil.

Cylinder Head Machined

Reconditioned Oil Pan

Turbonetics T3/T4 Hybrid Turbo

Custom Intercooler/Piping

Custom 3" inch exhaust, with Magnaflow muffler'

Aeromotive Fuel Pressure Regulator

Hayden 8" Electric Fans (X2)

Steel Flywheel

Toyota Four Piston Caliper breaks

Tokico HP (Blues) Struts Front and Rear

Tokiko Springs Front and Rear

Functioning Air Conditioning Unit

Thermostat 160 Degree

Clutch Kit

Cosmetic Damage:

Driver side rear tailight housing has a crack, as shown in pictures. With this car I am also selling a pair of 240Z tailights to replace the 280Z lights.
The front bumper has a crack from a car dinging it, as shown in pictures as well.

This is just a portion of some of the work done to this vehicle. I have years of paperwork detailing continued maintence with this vehicle to include things such as all bushings being replaced, air conditioned install and repair, transmission mounts replaced, etc. This car has been meticulously taken care of these past years, and it shows. Also included with the car is two boxes of parts to include replacement gauges, extra break pads, 240Z tailights and more.

Last reminders, as this engine was just rebuilt, it is still in the break-in phase. I have done the first two oil changes at the 1000mi mark so far. Also, the 8" inch fans are doing their job, but I have realized that 12" fans are necessary to keep up with the extra heat, and the lack of airflow from the ZG nose. If you do purchase this vehicle, that would be my suggestion to purchase larger fans or swap in the Ford Taurus OEM fan like many do. If you have any further questions, feel free to ask and good luck bidding!

37K miles in a 1967 Datsun Roadster

Tue, 11 Mar 2014

When 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.

Subaru Legacy pitted against Roadkill project cars

Fri, 05 Sep 2014

There's an evergreen debate among auto enthusiasts about whether they would prefer to have the latest and greatest car of today or a certified classic from yesteryear. What if you had to further define that, though, and the choice was between a brand new 2015 Subaru Legacy or a turbocharged Datsun 240Z with a hatch that wouldn't close? Roadkill aimed to find out that and more in one of its best videos to date.
According to the hosts, Subaru came to them, handed over some money and challenged Roadkill's project cars against its latest Legacy. The result is every bit as good (or better) than any automotive-themed show you could find on television.
Things start simple with a figure-eight race in a rodeo arena with the Subaru taking on Roadkill's 1968 Ford Ranchero, originally built for ice racing. From there the Legacy races a 1968 Dodge Charger with no windows around and off-road rally stage. Finally, the Subie goes head-to-head against the Rotsun, the aforementioned turbocharged 240Z, through an abandoned neighborhood. Plus, there's a bonus drag race challenging them all.
