Houston, Texas, United States

This recently restored 1971 Datsun 240Z is one of the nicest Zs you will find. No expense was spared in its restoration.
Completely media-blasted, every nut and bolt was removed and restored or replaced with new. No rust. Has not seen a wet road in the past two years. All new urethane bushings everywhere. Front airdam. Dynamat was installed inside and the “dirty” side was undercoated. New NOS dash and taillights, Z Therapy carbs on the rebuilt and stock 2.4L engine. (Not a matching number car, as the original engine was destroyed due to a tuning mishap.) An ’82-’83 5-speed and R200 3.90 differential is installed. Runs like a new car. No surprises. Car equipped with power windows, power locks, air conditioning, new retractable seat belts, tinted windows, outside mirror upgrade. New interior. Headlight relay harness installed. Rare manual throttle on console. Toyota truck brake (front) upgrade. Stock suspension and period correct wheels, not lowered or modified. Original radio in place. Modern radio in glove box, but not connected to speakers; speaker wires under the carpet but not connected to speakers. Speakers come with car. Approximately 118,000 miles on chassis and 1,000 miles on engine. VIN: HLS30 15653 Build Date: 12/1970 I have owned this car for a bit over two years, but it’s time to move on. The winning bidder will not be disappointed with his “new” Z. |

Malaise Era All-Stars
Fri, 17 May 2013A 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:

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."
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.
