I have owned this 240z for about two years. I bought it from a man who had it stored for about twelve years. It is very rare to find one with as little rust as this one. A local z car expert has looked it over and regards it to be a very clean and in very good condition.

Here is a basic list of what I have already done to the car;

completely new brake system(all except the booster- no problems there)
the fuel tank has been professionally cleaned by the most reputable shop in Marietta
I have rebuilt all light switches in the steering column-works great
all fluids have been flushed and changed.
plugs have been cleaned and gaped 
points have been cleaned
all new cap, rotor, and wires
all new fuel hoses and filter
changed gear oil

The car runs and drives fine. I believe there is a universal joint on the drive shaft with some play in it but seems to have plenty of life left. The only bad thing we can say about the car is that the floor boards have been bent from what appears to be misplacement of jacks and jackstands.
This damage goes from the front edge of the seats to the fire wall. The z car specialist that I had look at the car said if it was his he wouldn't even bother fixing it. I happened to find replacement floor pans with heavier duty frame rails and front frame rails on the internet for very cheap.
Also the center console of the dash is damaged. Any parts that seem to be missing in the pictures also come with the car. I simply don't have time, or the space for a toy like this. I did the best I could with the pics to show any damage. You will notice a few primer spots in the epics. These are not rust repairs- just superficial dings.
VIN number available if needed.


The buyer will be responsible for all shipping from my driveway to theirs. Payment in full is required before the car will move. Let my failed relationship be your gain!

Fiat contemplating sub-brand to compete with Dacia, Datsun

Tue, 05 Feb 2013

You can add Fiat to the admittedly short list of automakers considering a low-cost brand to rival Dacia. The inexpensive Eastern European brand from Renault-Nissan has performed on the balance sheet like a premium model line, and the money the alliance is taking off the table is encouraging other players to deal themselves in. Pretty soon Nissan's Datsun sub-brand will join the Dacia party, going on sale in Russia, Indonesia and India and will claim even more rubles, rupiahs and rupees for the parent company. Volkswagen recently said it will make a decision this year on a budget line for the Chinese market. With the euthanasia of Lancia and plans to move the Fiat brand upmarket, company CEO Sergio Marchionne wonders aloud to Automotive News Europe whether there could be room for a new budget brand underneath Fiat.
We're told that the initiative has been in the idea box for five years and even moved to the stage of name considerations, like Innocenti, but worries about profit kept it from realization. If such a range were to be developed, Marchionne says it couldn't be built in Italy and stay within budget, and the company is "analyzing its manufacturing capacity outside of Europe to see if a low-cost brand is viable."

Meet the man who took a year sabbatical to drive his 1967 Datsun Fairlady Roadster

Tue, 28 Jan 2014

A quiet drive in the country can be the most relaxing thing in the world. What if it didn't have to end, and you could keep driving for a week, a month or even a whole year? That's what Scott Fisher is doing by taking a one-year sabbatical from work and driving his 1967 Datsun Fairlady Roadster around North America.
"I had owned a manufacturing business in Las Vegas for 16 years. I knew I needed to kinda' get out, and unwind, and get my mojo back," said Fisher.
Fisher's trip has covered over 30,000 miles through 44 states and 7 Canadian Provinces, and it is not over yet. He left from his home in Las Vegas, NV, last spring and drove to the Pacific. From there, he drove up the coast to the Canadian border and aimed the car for the Atlantic. He just posted on his blog about visiting the Nissan headquarters and museum in Franklin, TN, and his next stops are Mississippi and New Orleans, LA.

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.
