I will start with the bad new. I bought this car in Alabama, which is a non title state for a car this old. I have the bill of sale, but was not able to get a title in the state of Alabama. A title can be procured, in another state but there are a lot of hoops that need to be jumped through depending on the state you live in. If you live in a non title state, you can register it with just a bill of sale.  

I bought the car about 6 years ago, and the body was in excellent shape. I had it painted, and had plans to restore it. Shortly after having it painted I was stationed overseas, and I kept the car in a storage garage ever since. I am now stationed at Holloman AFB, and have been doing some work to get it back up and running. The car starts, and drives, but is in need of a pretty good tune up. The carb is freshly rebuilt. It has a new fuel pump, battery, starter, spark plug wires, distributor cap, and various other parts under the hood. The original carbs have been replaced by a holley 4-barell by one of the previous owners. I have stock carbs available for purchase as well. I have side turn signal lights that I purchased, and they just need to be installed. I am also including new black carpet, and black door panels. Both of which cost me at least $200. I have dumped a lot of money into this car, but my family situation isn't the same as it was before I decided to take a tour in Japan. My wife would be much happier if I wasn't throwing all our money into a car. 

As you can see by the pictures, the paint is pretty nice, but is not the best. It is in need of a good wet sanding and some touchup. The interior is pretty bare, but I am including the seats, carpet, and door panels. You shouldnt need much more that that. The dash is cracked all to hell and back, just like most other datsuns this age. This car would make a perfect project. It really only needs a tune up, and some bolt on parts. Feel free to contact me with any questions about the car. I have various other parts, such as a turnkey L26 motor, and a 5 speed tranny from a 280ZX that I am willing to sell seperately

I am also selling the car locally, so I reserve the right to end the auction at any time. I can deliver anywhere within 600 miles at the rate of $.75 /mile. Any distance greater than that, please be prepared to pick it up yourself, or hire a private shipper. 

I require a non-refundable deposit via paypal of $500 within 24 hours of the auctions end. I will require the rest of the money either via paypal or cash at the time of pickup/delivery.

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.

Datsun debuts new seven-seat Go+ in Indonesia [w/video]

Wed, 18 Sep 2013

The Datsun name may have long since been replaced by Nissan, but the old brand is making a comeback - in certain markets, at least. Nissan relaunched the Datsun brand in July as its new budget brand for developing markets with the debut of the Go hatchback, and has now followed up with the addition of the larger Go+.
Set to be built in Indonesia at Nissan's plant in Purwakarta, the Go+ debuts today in the capital of Jakarta as the second model in the new Datsun lineup. The seven-passenger minivan features flexible seating in a compact form 13 feet long, powered by an unspecified 1.2-liter engine mated to a five-speed manual transmission.
Nissan isn't saying much else about the model, but hopes the new Datsun twins will account for half of its sales in Indonesia within three years. The low price target for both models - set to come in at less than 100 million rupiah ($8,700) - ought to help it get there. The lineup is then scheduled to reach other markets, starting with India, Russia and South Africa next year.

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.
