Here is a 1972 Datsun 240 Z that has been sitting in doors for years. I bought it as part of an estate. The car has a bill of sale but no registration. Some one put a fuel injected 280 Z engine in it then realized they had no way to control the FI. the motor does turn over. A manifold and carb set would be easy to install on the motor. This car would be a great donor car as it has lots of good interior parts as well as after market AC!
The passenger inner fender is rust free! That is impossible to find these days. The rear tail lights and surrounds are good. The rear bumper is good and the front has a minor crack that could easily be fixed and re-chromed. I parted out one of these cars a few weeks ago and got almost $2000. I just don't have the time but if the very low reserve is not met I will find it.
The car comes with four Aluminium "Mags" like the ones shown on the front. The tires are shot on the rears. The rear rims in the picture DO NOT GO with the car. I spent 10 minutes with an electric drill with a wire brush and brought the worst aluminium mag back to almost new. For another $100 I will throw in a nice rear louver from another car I parted out. Those cost over $350 these days.
The rear glass is the rare vertical defroster type. This could also be a fun drift car. It has much more potential then some of the wrecks I see listed. Please send any questions. I will get back to you ASAP. Thanks for looking, Jim

Nissan IDx 'in the plan' for production, needs support from fans [w/poll]
Wed, 15 Jan 2014If 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 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."
