It is a 1972 Datsun 240z. 85k miles on the ODO. 4 speed.

It is an older restoration that needs a some work to get back to great shape.

There have been some upgrades for drivability and reliability. Those being an electric fuel pump and an electronic ignition. A full tune up(plugs, ignition coil, wires, etc.) was done when the electronic ignition was installed 2 months ago. Full synthetic oil is all I've put in it.
New polyurethane sway bar end link bushing and new strut rod bushings.
There is some new rubber seals as well. There are no leaks in the rear hatch.
It has a new battery a month ago.

New Clutch slave cylinder.
Tires only have a few thousand miles on them.
Paint: there are some blemishes, and it's a bit rough around a couple corners(1 crack, some bubbling of the paint on the fender lips), but, it does shine really nicely and with a fresh wax the car looks amazing! The engine bay has been painted black, the radiator supports have been painted the body color silver, the underside of the hood painted to match as well. Door jams painted as well. Rear deck inside was not, so it is the original brown.
Frame rails are in decent shape, just did a new underbody coating with a roll on bed liner.

What it needs: A little bit of interior work: carpet on the driver's side, carpet on the rear deck, driver's seat has a rip in it, dash is cracked but has dash pad, center console cracked. Probably some simple maintenance things on top.

There are no oil leaks and it does not burn mounds of oil. I put in a quart once between oil changes.

It's an easy winter project. Not something you have to poor tons of effort into. It's the little things.

Datsun previews new budget sedan for Russia [w/video]

Thu, 13 Mar 2014

Nobody 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."

Datsun to unveil second model later this month

Sun, 08 Sep 2013

Datsun, Nissan's new sub-brand for emerging markets, has announced plans to unveil its second model. Its first, the Go, was unveiled almost two months ago, and promised affordable, connected motoring for five in a handsome hatchback body. Datsun is following that up with a pair of new models for Indonesia.
The first of these two new vehicles will be shown on September 17 in Jakarta, eschewing the typical auto show debut. It's targeted at so-called "risers," the nickname for a group of highly aspirational customers in the Indonesian market. Datsun developed it locally with help from Nissan, and it'll cost under 100 million Indonesian rupiah (about $8,900 at today's rates).
We'll have the full boatload of information on the newest member of the Datsun family when it debuts on September 17. Scroll on to read the full press release from Datsun.
