This is a very nice example of a 1983 Datsun 280 ZX, the last year for this model. This 280 ZX has a t-top roof, power steering, power brakes, power windows, electric seat warmers, and air conditioning. It has been re-painted its original white color within the past two years and had a new $2,000 interior installed earlier this year. The car was equipped with cruise control, but it is not currently working.
The car is in mechanically excellent condition; the 2.8 L, 6-cylinder motor is strong and the 5-speed transmission shifts smoothly. The disc brakes and rotors are good. The car is reliable and handles very well. Newer parts under the hood include a radiator, spark plugs, wires, distributor, coil, fuel filter, air filter, and alternator. The original shifter has been replaced by a short-throw. The front tires are new. The AC has been converted to R 134. The original stereo has been replaced with a new CD player with bluetooth and new speakers. The car's worst cosmetic problem is the hood has a couple of decent sized dings from a hail storm. The B pillar trim is missing on the passenger side, but would be easy to replace. There's a light remnant of a star chip that was filled on the windshield, but hasn't spread at all. There are other small, minor flaws here and there, but nothing major. This is not a show car, but is an extremely nice, extremely reliable driver. Just passed a TX safety inspection. |

Meet the man who took a year sabbatical to drive his 1967 Datsun Fairlady Roadster
Tue, 28 Jan 2014A 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 to unveil second model later this month
Sun, 08 Sep 2013Datsun, 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.
