I am the second owner of this vehicle. Purchased from the original owner in 1976, 37 years ago (who I interviewed) with 30,000 miles. I drove it from 1976 to 1989 and accumulated 135,553 miles. Have a Holley 4 barrel conversion kit and pre 1973 carburetors (SU Type). Do not have the original 1973 carburetors. Took the car out of service in 1989 and stripped to the body. All of the items taken off the car along with the engine where stored inside. The car was blasted with baking soda and primed. The shop I gave the car to to do the body work went out of business, I was out of the country and never got back to it. The car sat outside covered with a tarp from 1993 to present. All items removed from the running car included. The dash, console, and seats are included although not pictures as they were stored in another location. The dash has 2 cracks on top as they usually do. Seats are in good shape considering age. The aftermarket fiberglass nose kit is shown on the car, the original headlight bezels and front lower cowling are included. The original left front fender is included although dented, a replacement aftermarket left front fender is shown on the car. The car originally came with a York A/C compressor which was swapped for a rotary compressor installed on the lower left side of the engine in the air pump location.

Condition:The body is in good shape, dent free. There is rust around the back of the seat mounts, the rest of the body is sound. Rocker panels are in good shape and sound. Lower fender wells have surface rust but it will sand off, no rust penetrations. See the tapping video. The car was repainted twice. Both times by the owner. The 2nd time it was stripped, zinc chromate primed and finished in Porsche 565 Metallic Silver Acrylic Lacquer.

Original engine and transmission with matching VIN.

Shipping and Payment: Cash Payment. Free on Board, Buyer responsible for picking up, packaging, and transport from Anniston, Alabama. (3 miles off of I-20 Exit 188, available for pick-up between November 21st - 27th only)

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."

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.

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.
