On the block: 1980 Datsun 280ZX 2+2 with NH title. Back seats have enough room to fit or fold down for extra storage room. 2.8L Straight 6 accompanied with 5 speed manual transmission. Car runs and drives strong: nice enough to save for the weekends and durable and reliable enough for everyday driving. Car has extensive paper work including original sales sticker, original manual, and original warranty and service manual. Car had many repairs in 2004 as well as the paperwork to back it up. Car is in great shape and is easily one of the best 280's out there.

The Good: Mechanically the car is very strong, all electronics work especially door light and bell when door is ajar as well as working engine bay light. A/C is cold, and the heat works great. Power windows and power mirrors all operate with out flaw. Dashboard is un-cracked, and interior is impeccable. Gear box and clutch are tight and deliver plenty of power to the rear wheels. Handling and braking are very sensitive and have all the power to take tight runs or bring the car to a fast halt. Extensive paperwork dating back to 1985.

The Bad: With all 30+ year old cars it has some minor issues. Seeps oil and some leakage through moon roof. The moon roof is inoperable and chalked closed. The starter can sometimes be fiddly in the cold weather but a roll start is usually the answer. The car has some rust that was resulted in a poor paint prep. Some rust along roof line where windshield meets the roof as well as some rust on the cowl.

I am the third owner of this vehicle and this car is nothing short of amazing. I always get looks and compliments and most of the time people think its a Porsche. I am listing this car with all aspects that have been presented to me and my knowledge; there may be unseen issues I am not aware of. Please use caution and do research before placing a bid on this car. Good luck and good bidding.

This car is being offered and posted to the best knowledge of the seller. Please ask questions before bidding if concerned. This car is being offered with no warranty guaranteed or implied. The buyer is responsible for all shipping related to the car.

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.

Roadkill pits every project car against each other

Sat, 22 Feb 2014

The 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.

Malaise Era All-Stars

Fri, 17 May 2013

A 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:
