this is a 1973 Datsun 240Z very rare automatic transmission, factory built race car in 1973.serious bidders only. the car came out from the factory green with tan interior,was repainted red with black interior in 1987 for my sister, she never liked the car and didn't put many miles on it, less than 5000. The odometer shows 40589 miles but i'm sure it has more, no idea how many. It has set under her car port since around 1990, the paint is sun/weather cracked but the body is in good shape, it would need very little body work.The engine has never been rebuilt and doesn't use oil the transmission pulls good no slippage but doesn't have 2nd gear it shifts from 1st to 3rd, or that's what it seems like to me, maybe just a simple valve body fix, I haven't investigated that problem. It has dealer installed A/C, and the tachometer doesn't work as far as i know everything else does work. The car ran good when last driven and with a battery and some carb cleaner i'm sure would run fine again, if i make it run the price will go up.This car is a classic as you don't find many with the automatic transmission so serious inquiries only please. I believe we are the 3rd owner so you can be the 4th, real fun sporty little car to drive, can make someone a good hot rod, fixed up like new should bring around $20,000.00

Roadkill pits every project car against each other
Sat, 22 Feb 2014The guys behind Motor Trend's monthly Roadkill series have collected nine of their favorite project cars from their videos and pitted them against each other in a battle royale to determine a winner. It's 44 minutes long, but it's completely worth the investment of time.
The cars run the gamut from a 1973 Chevrolet Ramp Truck, a 1975 AMC Pacer and a legitimately impressive 1967 Chevy Camaro, and they are pitted against each other to see which is the fastest around an autocross course. The drivers include Roadkill's two hosts and Motor Trend's Johnny Lieberman and Carlos Lago. It's reminiscent of the best episodes of Top Gear and worth a watch.
So it's the weekend - the perfect time to relax. Grab your preferred beverage, get comfortable and enjoy 44 minutes of some seriously ratty but utterly cool project cars as they are throttled within an inch of their lives (or past it). Scroll down to check out the video.
Fiat contemplating sub-brand to compete with Dacia, Datsun
Tue, 05 Feb 2013You 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."
