Up for auction is a 1980 Datsun 280zx 10th anniversary edition ID #310 of 3000 made. I purchased the car in August of 2005 and have done some mechanical work. Car runs and handles very well and looks good. The two tone red/black paint and the gold/black pinstripe really set off this car. There were only 500 made of this anniversary color design. It is rarer than its counterpart anniversary color scheme of gold and black. It has 52964 original miles. All the following has been replaced or repaired:
new brakes,
new water pump,
tint window,
NOS coin holder,
A/C-works well and is cold,
New set of 4 tires,
New Gold front Emblem-NOS ,
Side Fender Sticker Decals-NOS,
Rebuild Manifold,
New Front Floor Mats,
Tool Kit-Used,
NOS Dash Duct Sides,
Fuel Injection completely cleaned and gone through,
New top front dash skin,
NOS gas cap ,
The car was repainted at some point in time before I purchased it. There are a few small body "bubbles" that I took pictures of that I believe are small rust spots underneath. That is all I see of any rust. There is surface rust under the chassis which is expected for a car of this age. The dash has some cracks in it which is why I have a new dash top that I never have put on. I also have NOS side dash vent ducts in red which are very hard to find. I have only seen one pair ever on ebay and I bought them for a big price but it will look great once the dash is replaced. The car has seen some sun. There is some fading on the top part of the door panels and in the hatch areas as shown, but neither are ripped or torn. Seats are in clean shape. The rear hatchback carpet is a bit dried. Power steering , power brakes, and power windows all work find. The cruise control light goes on but does not engage. The radio works but there is static obviously the antenna is busted so I can’t hear much on the radio. I never tried the cassette but I will say it doesn’t work unless I try before I place this listing. All the gauges work except for the gas tank. There seems to be some intermittence problem as sometimes it will work and then quit and then go back to working. I just fill up after every couple hundred miles. Have never removed the t-tops but the drivers side inside molding has broken on the right side towards the visor as shown in the pix. There are a couple of fine line cracks in the driver’s side t-tops. There are also some fine circular scratches from the car wash on the hood as also shown in the pictures. The alloy wheels have some pitting in them. Car passed smog with out a problem late in 2009. The car is registered with current tags. Last time I checked, all the tail lights, brake lights and headlights work. Car is complete with nothing missing that I know of except for the 280zx emblem on the front fenders. I have some real nice ones but the back steams have been broken off. There are also clear plastic covers over the recessed headlights. I recently bought a nicer passenger side door handle, a passenger side door handle grip, and NOS door window switch bezels. Exterior close ups. Missing 280 ZX emblem Top Windshield. Exterior door handle. Paint bubbles at gas filler. Scratches in hood paint. Broken antenna. Engine compartment. Interior Dash Seats Door Panels Console Sun visors and front header. Carpet and rear compartment. Seat belt. Wheel. Underside. Parts. A $ 1000 down payment must be made within 48 hours of the auction end by Paypal. The remainder must be paid within 7 days by cashiers check or cash or band wire transfer. Any checks must clear both banks before the car will be released. I reserve the right to cancel this auction at any time. |

37K miles in a 1967 Datsun Roadster
Tue, 11 Mar 2014When 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.
Datsun debuts new seven-seat Go+ in Indonesia [w/video]
Wed, 18 Sep 2013The Datsun name may have long since been replaced by Nissan, but the old brand is making a comeback - in certain markets, at least. Nissan relaunched the Datsun brand in July as its new budget brand for developing markets with the debut of the Go hatchback, and has now followed up with the addition of the larger Go+.
Set to be built in Indonesia at Nissan's plant in Purwakarta, the Go+ debuts today in the capital of Jakarta as the second model in the new Datsun lineup. The seven-passenger minivan features flexible seating in a compact form 13 feet long, powered by an unspecified 1.2-liter engine mated to a five-speed manual transmission.
Nissan isn't saying much else about the model, but hopes the new Datsun twins will account for half of its sales in Indonesia within three years. The low price target for both models - set to come in at less than 100 million rupiah ($8,700) - ought to help it get there. The lineup is then scheduled to reach other markets, starting with India, Russia and South Africa next year.
Roadkill pits every project car against each other
Sat, 22 Feb 2014The guys behind Motor Trend's monthly Roadkill series have collected nine of their favorite project cars from their videos and pitted them against each other in a battle royale to determine a winner. It's 44 minutes long, but it's completely worth the investment of time.
The cars run the gamut from a 1973 Chevrolet Ramp Truck, a 1975 AMC Pacer and a legitimately impressive 1967 Chevy Camaro, and they are pitted against each other to see which is the fastest around an autocross course. The drivers include Roadkill's two hosts and Motor Trend's Johnny Lieberman and Carlos Lago. It's reminiscent of the best episodes of Top Gear and worth a watch.
So it's the weekend - the perfect time to relax. Grab your preferred beverage, get comfortable and enjoy 44 minutes of some seriously ratty but utterly cool project cars as they are throttled within an inch of their lives (or past it). Scroll down to check out the video.
