This 240Z was originally purchased in VA and was brought to NC when the original owner retired.  I have the original sales receipt (actually has 2 – one showing it as a 1972 and the correct  one showing it as a 1971), window sticker, warranty card, radio manual, Manufacturers Statement of Origin, vehicle order form and owner’s manual.  It was undercoated when it was new and not driven in the winter time so this Datsun is in superb shape. 

It still maintains its original driveline (engine, 4 speed transmission and rear end), and runs/drives well.  It currently has Nissan wheels from a late 70’s 280Z.  The original steel wheels and hubcaps come with the car.

The car had one repaint in the original silver color. 

The seat bottom and seat back on the driver side as well as the seat bottom of the passenger side were replaced with original seat covers.  I have the passenger seat back that comes with the car.  The car does not have its original radio – the original owner had it replaced and put speakers in the door panels.  Sadly the original radio was misplaced.  Aside from that, the interior is original and is in great shape for the age of the car.  There are 2 cracks on the dash that are shown in the picture.  It also needs a rear hatch strut. 

Bumpers, exterior molding and emblems do show their age.  They are presentable for a driver vehicle, but, could be replaced to make it nicer.

If I were keeping the car I would replace the shifter boot, foot rest and rear carpet as it shows more age/wear than the rest of the interior parts.  All gauges work except for the clock.

Mechanically the car is in great shape.  You can see from the pictures that the engine is stock, and extremely clean for a 42 year old vehicle with 110K miles. 

The car is currently located just south of Wilmington NC.  I’m happy to email any additional pictures you’d like to see.  Please email if you have any questions.

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 to unveil second model later this month

Sun, 08 Sep 2013

Datsun, Nissan's new sub-brand for emerging markets, has announced plans to unveil its second model. Its first, the Go, was unveiled almost two months ago, and promised affordable, connected motoring for five in a handsome hatchback body. Datsun is following that up with a pair of new models for Indonesia.
The first of these two new vehicles will be shown on September 17 in Jakarta, eschewing the typical auto show debut. It's targeted at so-called "risers," the nickname for a group of highly aspirational customers in the Indonesian market. Datsun developed it locally with help from Nissan, and it'll cost under 100 million Indonesian rupiah (about $8,900 at today's rates).
We'll have the full boatload of information on the newest member of the Datsun family when it debuts on September 17. Scroll on to read the full press release from Datsun.
