For auction is a 1971 Datsun 240z with VIN HLS30-35716. It is almost completed. It runs and idles fine, but stutters when you try to accelerate. I believe it is a tuning issue. The car is very complete with almost all pieces included. The car is in primer, but it needs some more body work and paint. All body parts were completely removed to prime. All metal pieces have been bead blasted and look very clean. The floor pans and framerails have been replaced with brand new ones. The underside of the pans still needs to be painted and sealed (I am including the sealer). The wheels are Enkei brand. As seen in pics there are a few things not installed but are included. Below is a list of anything I can think of on the car. Feel free to ask any questions you have. 


Brand New Parts:
*Floor Pans and Frame Rails
*Complete weatherstrip kit
*Battery
*Half Dash Cap (Installed)
*Clutch Master 
*Clutch Slave
*Air filter
*All fluids
*Spark Plugs
*Plug Wires
*Distributor Cap

Cons:
*Body lines are not perfect

*Has open header...NO EXHAUST
*No stereo 
*Door panels have speaker cutouts
*Driver door has holes from mirror mount
*Horn does not work
*Missing inner door scuff plate that holds vinyl in
*Carpet could be replaced


Pros:
*Clean Title
*Almost completed project
*Hatch weatherstrip included but not glued in so car can be painted first.
*Vin Plate included but left off for completion
*Rust Free
*Complete interior

This father and son duo terrorize the UK countryside in Datsun 240Z pair

Wed, 12 Nov 2014

The 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.

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.
