1973 240z Red With Black Interior. Restored on 2040-cars
Waleska, Georgia, United States
This is your chance to own one of the nicest 240Z's in the country. This car started life in New Mexico and was brought to Georgia a few years ago. I have restored this car to be factory correct down to the smallest detail other than a small hand full of items. Most notably but not limited to is the bumpers and carbs are from a 72. The valve cover is painted with a red wrinkle paint and the smog pump was not put back on. The 73 240Z had some features that the earlier cars didn't have which make it a nicer car to drive. The seat belts retract opposed to the pull tight type. The heater control panel is back lit and the seat backs adjust much easier with a lever opposed to the knob that the early cars had. The engine, radiator, carbs and the mechanical portion of the wipers have all been rebuilt. It runs and drives better than it did when it was new. The following is all new. Paint, all rubber seals, windshield, tires, brake calipers, master cylinder, struts, suspension bushings, clutch master cylinder, slave cylinder, leather seats (not vinyl), door panels, all the vinyl, all the interior panels, The carpets are not new but they were replaced and are in good condition. The pictures don't do it justice but everything in the engine compartment has be restored to like new and is show car worthy. You won't be disappointed. Every time I open the hood the first thing everyone says is Wow! The odometer shows 65388 but the mileage is exempt. The car has roughly 1000 miles since the restoration completion.

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 officially reborn with Go model for India [w/video]
Mon, 15 Jul 2013In March of 2012, Nissan announced the return of its historic Datsun brand. Datsun used to represent the Nissan brand in a number of markets, but its badge hasn't been worn on a new model since 1981. In 2013, though, it has been relaunched as the Japanese manufacturer's budget offering in the emerging markets of India and Russia.
The model that will lead that charge, at least in India, is the Go, a car that pays tribute to the very first Datsun, the DAT-GO.
The operative term with the Datsun brand is: "budget offering." Don't step inside the Go and expect beautiful hides or brushed metals (it's being sold in India, after all). The instrument cluster features a simple speedometer, while the five-speed manual and the center stack above it are rather barren. It's not without luxuries, though, as iPod-style connectivity is available through a Mobile Docking Station.
