This is it! The ultimate z car! Just in time for those fall foliage rides!
1978 Datsun 280Z 5 Speed Manual Transmission Original numbers matching Fuel Injected Straight-6 cylinder engine Rust-Free! 140K miles Clean title. Factory A/C! COLD AC and hot heat! Straight body! Runs and drives great! Strong engine, smooth shifting transmission. Brakes and tires in very good condition. This is a real gem! Has been my daily driver since I bought it from the original owner, and it still drives like a dream. A clean original 280z with a 5 speed manual with working factory A/C that isn't rusted and still runs great is really hard to find in the northeast. This car has been well cared for, with a lot of improvements to make sure it performs at its best for years to come. PA inspected til 2015, currently located in northeast NJ. New: Original transmission was rebuilt ~10,000 miles ago. Shifts beautifully! New Clutch Starter Front suspension tie rods, tie rod covers, radial arms and radial arm bushings Stabilizer links and bushings Headlights Battery Alternator Intake Manifold Radiator Gaskets and Hoses Electrical connectors and wires Rotor cap Distributor Spark plugs and spark plug wires Fuses & Fusible links Radio with CD player Full undercoating Oil and fluids and filters changed regularly Original 240Z chrome sideview mirrors (including passenger side! Hard to find!) +Extra outer trim pieces, extra filters, fuses, original owners manual, etc. included! Paint is slightly oxidized and crackled in places. The original seats are starting to tear - I use seat covers, included. Reupholster them and put on a fresh coat of paint and you have a show car, or drive as is! This car is so much fun, not to mention a serious babe magnet. I had to switch to a 4-seater so now I'm hoping to pass on my dream car to someone else who will treat it well. Fly/train in and drive it home! Or come pick it up with a friend or trailer. CASH only, no trades, no lowballers, will not ship - local pickup only. I am listing this on other websites and reserve the right to cancel the auction at any time. |

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."
Datsun officially reborn with Go model for India [w/video]
Mon, 15 Jul 2013In March of 2012, Nissan announced the return of its historic Datsun brand. Datsun used to represent the Nissan brand in a number of markets, but its badge hasn't been worn on a new model since 1981. In 2013, though, it has been relaunched as the Japanese manufacturer's budget offering in the emerging markets of India and Russia.
The model that will lead that charge, at least in India, is the Go, a car that pays tribute to the very first Datsun, the DAT-GO.
The operative term with the Datsun brand is: "budget offering." Don't step inside the Go and expect beautiful hides or brushed metals (it's being sold in India, after all). The instrument cluster features a simple speedometer, while the five-speed manual and the center stack above it are rather barren. It's not without luxuries, though, as iPod-style connectivity is available through a Mobile Docking Station.
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.
