NO RESERVE!!!!

For years parts were collected "just in case" a beloved 1972 Datsun 240z needed something replaced. Twenty years ago "just in case" became "for its restoration". Now that restoration is finally complete & what remains is "in the way". 

Our Horde Is Your Reward!

Up for sale is a 1972 Datsun 240Z project car. This car was last running and driving in 1994. At that time, I was moving it across the yard when the brakes failed and I ran into my van and damaging the passenger side headlight bucket. Except for some gauges in the dash which needed some minor wiring work, most everything else on it worked. I drove it inside my parent’s barn & parked it with the intent of fixing it up at some point. Unfortunately, life & other projects got in the way so it sat there for the next 20 years until I pulled it out to take these pictures. I haven’t tried to start it as it will need new fluids and hoses, battery, etc. It is however a pretty solid car for someone looking to put in the time to make it nice. The sheet metal is solid, and although the interior is disassembled, it still smells fresh and clean with no evidence of critters invading it and making it all crappy. I‘m not sure what all is missing, but I do know it does not have a cowl panel or front turn signals. I think everything else is there, including the hood. The car comes with a complete used dash wiring harness in addition to the one in it. The car is an automatic. It has Italian mag wheels of some sort but, unfortunately, not all of the tires hold air. It has a clear Pennsylvania title. I can help with delivery within 200 miles for a reasonable fee.

 I also have two additional engines and a 4 speed available separately if interested.

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.

Datsun Redi-Go is reborn brand's first concept car [w/video]

Wed, 05 Feb 2014

Nissan's plan for its reborn Datsun sub-brand just got a shot in the arm, as the emerging-market manufacturer has unveiled its first concept car since its resurrection back in 2012. Called the Redi-Go Concept, it looks like a high-riding version of Datsun's recently launched Go hatchback that's been fitted with a few concept car cues (not a bad thing).
The Redi-Go packs LED taillights, Datsun's "D-cut grille" and LED running lights into its Go-inspired body. Funky two-tone 15-inch wheels add a bit of cheek to the overall design, and in our minds look quite good, despite being so small. The ruggedized front and rear bumpers, as well as the sill and wheel arch surrounds add to the Redi-Go's rough-and-tumble aesthetic. We like that Datsun has kept the overall package short, giving the Redi-Go a 92.5-inch wheelbase, rather than creating a lifted version of the upcoming Go+. There are no specific mentions of the Redi-Go's mechanicals, although we'd wager that a production model might share the 1.2-liter engine and five-speed manual found in the standard Go.
While it might be easy to dismiss a concept like the Redi-Go in America, there's no denying its importance to the Indian market, which is decidedly more limited when it comes to available bodystyles. "If we were to make a car like Datsun Redi-Go Concept it would be a segment creator in India, an aspirational car that at the same time is attainable, a car that would be within reach of the first time buyer. This concept shows how serious we are about reinvigorating the market by catering for the needs of a growing class of Indians who have the chance to own a family car that will enable them to enjoy a new sense of independence," said Vincent Cobee, the global head of Datsun.
