Here You Have A Nice Older Restored Z Finished in 2008.  Hasnt Seen Road Use Untill Last Summer.  It Needed The clutch slave and master cylinders replaced and a full Tune up.  The injector wiring harness was also replaced new.

This Car Had a Body Ground Effects Kit Installed And New Paint to Include New Rims and Tires 6 Years Ago.  This all cost 4200.00. 

New Struts and Complete Brake system was Installed 6 Years ago. for some reason the clutch slave and master cylinders didnt survive and one front brake rotor now needs turned. Ive installed new cylinders.

It fires right up and sounds better than most z's  I've heard.  No valve train noise at all.  The fan is annoying thou.. sounds like a turbine jet.

The Interior is complete minus a fuse cover and under steering wheel cover.

The seats were perfect but are now cracking.

Has a dash molded cover which fits like a glove.  I cant tell you what the original looks like underneath.

The car has rust thru only under both rocker panels but can not be seen with side skirts.

The floor pans are original and solid.

The Hood Is New Original 240 z and Painted top and inside.

There is a few small areas of paint bubbling on two fenders but magnet says no bondo.

The body kit did not utilize any of the bumper components..those were entirely removed.

All switches are in perfect working order.

The speedometer is 10 mph slow due to low profile tires only.

The 5 speed in this car clicks into each gear nicely.

There is a new emergency cable in trunk that needs installed.

 The temp gage works sometimes. All other gages and lights are good.

 

I require a non refundable deposit of 300 within 3 days of auction winning bid and full balance to be paid with in 7 days.

 

I DO NOT ACCEPT PAYPAL <  CHECKS ARE FINE BUT WILL REQUIRE CLEARANCE WITH MY BANK BEFORE I RELEASE CAR>  CASH IN PERSON WORKS ALL THE TIME!

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.

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."

Nissan IDx Nismo and IDx Freeflow concepts are a bridge to the Datsun 510

Wed, 20 Nov 2013

We're not sure if someone from The Adjustment Bureau stopped by Nissan's PR department to explain the IDx Nismo and IDx Freeflow concepts, but the company's odd press release can't diminish our love for these two show favorites. We had been told to look out for an unnamed Datsun 510 BRE homage, and once we saw the brothers IDx, we knew we'd found them. But the press release doesn't mention anything about the Datsun 510 Brock Racing Enterprises, nor does it mention one Mr. Peter Brock, the man who won two Trans-Am championships in the Seventies for the nascent Japanese budget brand.
Instead, it declares that the cars were the result of a co-creation product development process with "digital natives," said natives being the whippersnappers born after 1990. Nissan says it worked with the young'uns to create two different expressions of "their desire for a basic, authentic configuration for a car." If that's true, it appears that what the kiddies really want are... two different homages to the Datsun 510 BRE that Peter Brock used to win two championships in the seventies for the nascent Japanese brand.
The IDx Freeflow - the "ID" is for "identification," the "x" is "the variable representing the new values and dreams born through communication" - takes the casual approach, with a light khaki exterior hue, a minimalist interior decked out in denim and a console shifter that works a continuously variable transmission. The IDx Nismo is out for blood, from its crimson interior to its five-point harness to its bolt-on flares and sidepipes. We aren't told what the digital natives requested for powerplants, but that's alright; if this is what "co-creation" looks like, we're not entirely against it except where that "CVT" is involved.
