This is probably one of the classiest, best looking, best running and cleanest 1977 Datsun Z 's you will ever see listed for sale anywhere.

Everything on this car is in mint condition,  New Struts, New Brakes, New Header Exhaust System, New Mufflers, New Fuel Injectors and New Aluminum Radiator, I could go on.  The inside of the car like Headliner, Carpet, Seats, Doors, Console and Gauges are immaculate.  This Vehicle has an extremely nice Pioneer AM/FM CD Player Radio with a one of a kind sound system, you will never see or hear one like it.  It also has a Radar Detector plus all kinds of extras like manually controlled Fuel Injector Cooling Fan and Engine Cooling Fan.  Take a close look under the Hood, nothing is out of place, Brackets are chromed even the Alternator is chromed.  The color of the car is Silver Grey with very tasteful blue striping, pay close attention to the Wheels and Tires, they are unique and original by themselves, note the Z in the Center of Hub, even the Valve Stems have Chrome Caps with a Z on them.  90% of all the nuts and bolts have been replaced with Allen Head Stainless Steel,  if you want the original Nuts and Bolts I have them also.  As you can see the car is also equipped with the old style Rear Hatchback Window Louvers, plus Air Dam and Headlight Covers.  Take special Notice of the Grille, there is not one single Datsun anywhere with a Grille like this one, yet it can easily be converted back to the original grille if you so desire.  I have known this car since 1978 it was owned by my insurance agent who bought it for his wife; but she didn't like it because it did not have power steering.  He sold it to a friend of mine who didn't drive it and kept it garaged until I bought it from him in 1993.  The mileage on this Datsun is 78,661 it has never been in an accident and has always been parked inside, there is no body rust anywhere on this car.  I have given this car a lot of care representing many hours and lots of dollars, I have enjoyed every minute of it; but it is now time for someone else to have the enjoyment I have experienced.  Also please not that the Clock has a Second Hand and Date, there are not too many, if any 1977 Datsun 280 Z 's out there with that kind of clock.

please be advised this Vehicle is not a California Model, therefore it is not equipped with a Catalytic Converter or an Altitude Compensator.

37K miles in a 1967 Datsun Roadster

Tue, 11 Mar 2014

When we think of comfy, long-distance road cars, there are a few obvious choices. A Mercedes-Benz S-Class, Bentley Continental GT or, assuming fuel efficiency isn't paramount, a Range Rover are all good options for a road trip. But what if that road trip was 37,000 miles? Maybe something more reliable but still comfortable, then, like a Honda Accord. What about a 1967 Datsun Roadster?
As insane as it sounds, Scott Fisher is doing just that, running a Datsun 1600 Roadster across North America and racking up 13,500 miles in his first three months on the road. His total journey will see him pile over 37,000 miles on his red convertible. The car is lightly modified, but most of the work is for the sake of reliability and comfort, with a five-speed manual 'box, an upgraded radiator and electronic ignition.
Fisher's trip hasn't been all smooth, with a few typical bits of trouble. He also ran into some deer in Utah, quite literally, clipping one of the animals, which delivered quite a bit of damage to the passenger's front fender (hence the rear three-quarter view in our lead shot). Still, the car seems to be holding up well, as shown in this latest video from Petrolicious.

Malaise Era All-Stars

Fri, 17 May 2013

A 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:
