Export No Problem...

This is an AWESOME, Rust Free, Custom 280Z V8. This little hot rod is a very nicely built Chevy V8 conversion. Rebuilt High performance 350 SBC and rebuilt turbo 350 automatic trans... double the horse power = double the fun... :) body kit, whale tale, and true side pipes give it that period correct hot rod look on the iconic first gen Datsun Z platform. This little rod is well executed... runs, and drives great... I've owned many V8 Z's... this one is NICE!. Great daily driver or weekend cruiser, or addition to any collection...  really cool to look at and super fun to drive.

Body is super straight with no signs of rust or collision damage that I can see. Excellent driver condition repaint in datsun blue metallic presents beautifully with only minor niks and blemishes. Not a trailer queen show car... its a proud hot rod/driver. Underside is nice and clean. Period Correct mag rims with fresh tires. Pics tell the story on this one. It gets alot of looks especially when you hit the gas... :)  


Interior is in great shape. Seats,  Panels, headliner and carpet are very nice. Quality Dash cover and custom center console. Gauges and Electronics all work properly, even the clock...AMAZING!... :) Cold AC and modern upgraded sound system.

  High performance Chevy 350 motor starts, runs, and drives great... 
aluminum intake manifold, freshly rebuilt 4 barrel, up-dated electronic ignition, headers and custom side pipe exhaust sounds awesome. Nice machine work and installation. Motor starts, runs, and idles excellent... It hauls A**.  Incredibly responsive, sounds awesome and is extremely quick. Trans shifts smooth through the gears... Jumps off the line and cruises nice on the freeway. Suspension is all redone and feels tight and handles great...all new brake system stops straight and sure. SUPER nice driver.

Overall this is a really nice Rust Free Custom V8 Z car in great condition all around... Conversion was done right and feels AWESOME. Easy daily driver or weekend cruiser, or potential show car. I am a Z collector... this is a great one for any Z car enthusiast, collector, or anyone looking for a cool, vintage sports car at a great price... this is a real opportunity... :)

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.

First new Datsun in decade sketched, set for Indian reveal

Mon, 01 Jul 2013

Nissan's Datsun nameplate revival will begin with two models bound for the Indian market. Nissan has released sketches of a five-door hatchback based on the Micra (codenamed K2) and a top-down view of a hood that could potentially be from a sedan.
The company's press release says all will be revealed on July 15 in New Delhi, India. The Datsun lineup will be first offered in 2014 to that country's ride-deprived residents as well as Indonesia and Russia. Later in 2014, South Africa will join the list.
We've heard Nissan plans for Datsuns to share platforms with company-owned Lada. In January, we heard the projected price tag could be around $3,000 USD to compete with Chinese imports. The official press release (which can be read in full below) says nothing about either of these reports, however.

Roadkill pits every project car against each other

Sat, 22 Feb 2014

The 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.
