If you have less than 20 feedback please call me before making an offer. Thanks 208-360-1636 or batpis@yahoo.com If you have been thinking of building a street racer that can run with the big dogs and yet handle like a sports car then this may be just what you are looking for. Most of the hard work is finished. This beast is put together nicely. It is fast and handles like a go kart on rails. All that is left is the fluffing and primping. We have an 87 Ranger with a 302. Basically the same setup as this but you can hear it coming like a freight train a mile away. Not so with this baby. It has a throaty rumble to be sure, but it sneaks up on the competition. Very gentle around town, unless you want to put your foot into it. Top end on this little beast is yet to be discovered. I know street racing is considered by some to be an illegal sport, but there are those of us out here that like to rack up the frequent flyer miles. This little savage is tight and handles with the confidence of prize fighter. So if this is what you're looking for........ you found it. 1977 Datsun 280z Aprox 6k on engine and trans. This car has a very strong Ford 302 V8. It is backed up by a AOD auto trans. It's a 4 speed overdrive trans. The car is geared high so it gets great MPG. Custom high flow radiator. Custom exhaust. New tires. Engine runs perfect. Trans shifts as it should. The only rust I could find is a little under the passenger floor. Please contact me to make an offer or with any questions you have. Buyer is responsible for shipping. I will help with loading. Car sold as is. Thanks

Meet the man who took a year sabbatical to drive his 1967 Datsun Fairlady Roadster
Tue, 28 Jan 2014A quiet drive in the country can be the most relaxing thing in the world. What if it didn't have to end, and you could keep driving for a week, a month or even a whole year? That's what Scott Fisher is doing by taking a one-year sabbatical from work and driving his 1967 Datsun Fairlady Roadster around North America.
"I had owned a manufacturing business in Las Vegas for 16 years. I knew I needed to kinda' get out, and unwind, and get my mojo back," said Fisher.
Fisher's trip has covered over 30,000 miles through 44 states and 7 Canadian Provinces, and it is not over yet. He left from his home in Las Vegas, NV, last spring and drove to the Pacific. From there, he drove up the coast to the Canadian border and aimed the car for the Atlantic. He just posted on his blog about visiting the Nissan headquarters and museum in Franklin, TN, and his next stops are Mississippi and New Orleans, LA.
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.
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."
