I purchased this car from the original female owner who bought the car new on May 1, 1972 from San Jose Datsun. I have the original San Jose Datsun New Car Guarantee Certificate, Warranty and Service Book, Hitachi Radio Guide, Datsun Air Conditioning Manual, Datsun 240Z Owners Manual, and Dealer Additional Equipment Sticker. I also have the Original Window Sticker and a copy of the Original Owner Title. The vehicle is currently registered and in my name per California DMV rules. Mostly original #110 paint on the car with a few areas of re-paint. The rear hatch was dented in a parking lot mishap back in the 1980's. The body shop used a lacquer paint back in the day which is now checking. There was no damage to the taillight panel. This car has a white interior that is in excellent condition for age. The dash is in good shape with two small cracks. All gauges working ( temp guage works intermittently) as well as electric antenna. This car still has the original Koito headlights installed. The headliner is in very good shape as are the door panels. Windows roll up and down. Air Conditioning is all present but needs compressor re-installed and some R12 added. The car was parked by the original owner in 2008 and was towed to a shop where it underwent a clean up and mechanical check. The master brake cylinder was replaced along with the front brake calipers and pads. The rear brake cylinders were also replaced along with brake shoes. We replaced the battery and completed a tune up and oil change. This Z car had been on a California DMV non-op since 2008 and is now currently registered, insured and in my name. I currently have two other Z cars with performance goodies installed on them. This car is much too original and nice to change in any way therefore I am selling it to someone who will appreciate it for the beautiful original survivor that it is. Feel free to visit my photo bucket page and look through 150 pictures of this car. There are 96 pictures in the album and on the last page there is a link to a sub-album with an additional 54 pictures.
This Z car is about as rust free as any Z car that has not been on a rotisserie. The paint is good for a 40 year old car but it does have the usual scratches and minor dings along the sides and nose. This is a great example of an early Z car and it will sell with no reserve and at a very low starting price. There is NO buy it now price. I have tried to describe this car in such a way that the buyer will receive a car that is in better condition than described. Car is sold as is - where is. No warranties expressed or implied. Yes, after full payment is received, I can store the car for a few weeks for transportation or overseas delivery. I have sold several cars to overseas buyers and am comfortable doing so. Contact me prior to bidding if you have little or no E-Bay feedback. If not your bid will probably be ignored and cancelled. Please contact me with any questions or to set up a viewing of the car.

Roadkill pits every project car against each other
Sat, 22 Feb 2014The 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.
Malaise Era All-Stars
Fri, 17 May 2013A few weeks ago, we bid a fond happy 40th anniversary to the automotive dark ages of 1973-84 that have come to be known as "The Malaise Era" - the performance ice-age when 160 horsepower was a lot and a 0-60 time of under 10 seconds was remarkable. Like music in the 1980s, everything in automobiledom didn't suck, however. There were a few bright spots. Here are five of our favorites:

Datsun reveals new On-Do budget sedan in Russia [w/video]
Tue, 08 Apr 2014When Nissan revived the Datsun brand name, it essentially hit the "undo" button on the rebranding it undertook decades ago. But this time, the Datsun name is being used solely as a budget brand for developing markets. The reborn marque 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 back again with the new On-Do sedan.
Launched in Moscow by CEO Carlos Ghosn, the On-Do was designed and engineered in Japan specifically for the Russian market - Nissan's fifth largest worldwide - where it will be built at the AvtoVaz plant in Togliatti. Decidedly budget-oriented, the Datsun On-Do is a four-door, five-seat econo-box measuring 172 inches long, 67 inches wide and 60 inches tall with an 18.7 cubic-foot trunk which Datsun describes as class-leading. Punctuating an otherwise bland shape is a large front grille and lighting front and rear that looks (and very well might be) bigger than the wheels.
Not that the Datsun On-Do needs a big contact patch to transfer power to the road: motivation is provided by a 1.6-liter engine with a grand total of - wait for it... wait a little longer - 87 horsepower. Which might strike you as a reasonable amount of muscle, considering the 400,000 rubles Datsun is getting for the On-Do (but consider that translates to about $11,300). That's a couple grand more than what Nissan gets for the Micra in that other giant northern country, or about the same amount it gets for the Versa in the US (which sells in Russia for 499k in rubles) - both of which are powered by what is in all likelihood the same 1.6-liter four but producing 109 hp. Of course Russia has different tax rates than the United States or Canada, but with such little power, the Datsun would fall into Russia's lowest tax bracket.
