Export No Problem...

This is an AWESOME, Rust Free, Custom 280Z V8. This little hot rod is a very nicely built Chevy V8 conversion. Rebuilt High performance 350 SBC and rebuilt turbo 350 automatic trans... double the horse power = double the fun... :) body kit, whale tale, and true side pipes give it that period correct hot rod look on the iconic first gen Datsun Z platform. This little rod is well executed... runs, and drives great... I've owned many V8 Z's... this one is NICE!. Great daily driver or weekend cruiser, or addition to any collection...  really cool to look at and super fun to drive.

Body is super straight with no signs of rust or collision damage that I can see. Excellent driver condition repaint in datsun blue metallic presents beautifully with only minor niks and blemishes. Not a trailer queen show car... its a proud hot rod/driver. Underside is nice and clean. Period Correct mag rims with fresh tires. Pics tell the story on this one. It gets alot of looks especially when you hit the gas... :)  


Interior is in great shape. Seats,  Panels, headliner and carpet are very nice. Quality Dash cover and custom center console. Gauges and Electronics all work properly, even the clock...AMAZING!... :) Cold AC and modern upgraded sound system.

  High performance Chevy 350 motor starts, runs, and drives great... 
aluminum intake manifold, freshly rebuilt 4 barrel, up-dated electronic ignition, headers and custom side pipe exhaust sounds awesome. Nice machine work and installation. Motor starts, runs, and idles excellent... It hauls A**.  Incredibly responsive, sounds awesome and is extremely quick. Trans shifts smooth through the gears... Jumps off the line and cruises nice on the freeway. Suspension is all redone and feels tight and handles great...all new brake system stops straight and sure. SUPER nice driver.

Overall this is a really nice Rust Free Custom V8 Z car in great condition all around... Conversion was done right and feels AWESOME. Easy daily driver or weekend cruiser, or potential show car. I am a Z collector... this is a great one for any Z car enthusiast, collector, or anyone looking for a cool, vintage sports car at a great price... this is a real opportunity... :)

This father and son duo terrorize the UK countryside in Datsun 240Z pair

Wed, 12 Nov 2014

The 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.

Nissan IDx 'in the plan' for production, needs support from fans [w/poll]

Wed, 15 Jan 2014

If there's a trend in the auto industry we can firmly get behind, it's the small, light and affordable rear-drive coupe. The positive critical reception to the Scion FR-S and Subaru BRZ twins has encouraged other manufacturers to look at building their own rear drivers, and even a few to show actual concept cars based on the idea. The Chevrolet Code 130R from 2012 and more recently, the Nissan IDx twins that were first shown at the 2013 Tokyo Motor Show both come to mind, as does the brand-new Kia GT4 Stinger Concept.
Nissan trotted out the IDx Nismo and the IDx Freeflow for another showing in Detroit and we'll admit to being totally smitten with both cars. Again. The duo draw inspiration from the iconic Datsun 510, a lightweight, affordable rear-driver that remains a cult favorite decades after production ended.
Now, a report from our friends at AutoWeek reveals that we may, possibly, hopefully see a production IDx, provided fans make a strong enough case for it. "It's in the plan," Nissan product boss Andy Palmer told AW. According to the report, Palmer said the IDx is "into the first sage of the development process. The next stage is project validation and then looking at the business case. It's no one's intent to waste millions of the company's money, so obviously we have a good feeling about this one."

Datsun officially reborn with Go model for India [w/video]

Mon, 15 Jul 2013

In 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.
