1979 Datsun 280zx Tenn. Car No Reserve on 2040-cars
New Baltimore, Michigan, United States
|
79 Datsun 280zx two seater. 6cyl. engine that runs great with a five speed manual trans that's shifts nice & the clutch grabs right off the floor. The car is close to completely rust free as you can see in the pics. No rust on any of the floors or trunk, rockers door bottoms, fenders. The driver fender was replaced do to a crease in it with no other damage as seen in pics. It was replaced with a rust free used fender not aftermarket. The car was bought new in N.C. and then went to Tenn. for the rest of it's life, my cousin bought it off the orig. owner & I have the window sticker & all the paper work from when the car was bought new. It has a clean Tenn. title as I am selling it for my cousin. The car has only been in MI. for six months & was indoors. The brake system has been gone through with a new master cyl. all new rubber brake hoses, rebuilt calipers in rear, new pads & turned the rotors. New fuel pump & filter, New battery, Rebuilt starter & dist. New spark plugs. All new temp. senders. Everything works on the car but the a/c that should work with a recharge. Factory a/c car with four wheel power disc brakes. It has power windows, mirrors, ant. All the gauges work but the gas gauge jumps around a bit when driving. I have been driving the car around on nice days so other than some cosmetics it's a driver right now. The tires are good but they shake a little about 60 mph. I have headlight covers & a complete weather-strip kit that goes with it. Have the car for sale locally so I reserve the right to end the auction early if sold locally. Call or e-mail any questions to Doug at 586-722-8050

Datsun expands low-cost revival with new Mi-Do in Moscow [w/video]
Fri, 29 Aug 2014Those who were disappointed when Datsun changed its name to Nissan over three decades ago may have been pleased to see the marque revived last year, even as a budget brand. Nissan's counterpart to its ally Renault's Dacia budget brand, Datsun has been steadily expanding its lineup of low-cost transportation for developing markets with the debut of the Go hatchback in India, the Go+ minivan in Indonesia and the On-Do sedan in Russia. And now it has returned to Moscow to reveal its fourth model, the Mi-Do.
Based closely on the On-Do sedan (which itself is based on the Lada Granta) the Mi-Do takes on a five-door hatchback bodystyle but with no more frills. It uses the same front-drive chassis with the same wheelbase as the sedan, but its chopped tail makes it a good foot and a half shorter overall. Into that compact shape, Datsun has fitted dual airbags, ABS and... well, that's about it. It's got a 1.6-liter, eight-valve inline-four kicking out a grand total of 87 horsepower to either a five-speed manual or a four-speed automatic. Bare bones, this is.
While delivery of the first On-Do sedans commences next month (with the first example going to an IT specialist in Omsk), the Mi-Do is set to begin delivery early next year. Scope out the video and press release below from the Mi-Do's reveal at the Moscow Motor Show.
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.
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:
