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.

Fiat contemplating sub-brand to compete with Dacia, Datsun

Tue, 05 Feb 2013

You can add Fiat to the admittedly short list of automakers considering a low-cost brand to rival Dacia. The inexpensive Eastern European brand from Renault-Nissan has performed on the balance sheet like a premium model line, and the money the alliance is taking off the table is encouraging other players to deal themselves in. Pretty soon Nissan's Datsun sub-brand will join the Dacia party, going on sale in Russia, Indonesia and India and will claim even more rubles, rupiahs and rupees for the parent company. Volkswagen recently said it will make a decision this year on a budget line for the Chinese market. With the euthanasia of Lancia and plans to move the Fiat brand upmarket, company CEO Sergio Marchionne wonders aloud to Automotive News Europe whether there could be room for a new budget brand underneath Fiat.
We're told that the initiative has been in the idea box for five years and even moved to the stage of name considerations, like Innocenti, but worries about profit kept it from realization. If such a range were to be developed, Marchionne says it couldn't be built in Italy and stay within budget, and the company is "analyzing its manufacturing capacity outside of Europe to see if a low-cost brand is viable."

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.
