Export No Problem...

This is an AWESOME, Rust Free, Custom 280Z V8. This little hot rod is a very nicely built Chevy V8 conversion. Rebuilt High performance 350 SBC and rebuilt turbo 350 automatic trans... double the horse power = double the fun... :) body kit, whale tale, and true side pipes give it that period correct hot rod look on the iconic first gen Datsun Z platform. This little rod is well executed... runs, and drives great... I've owned many V8 Z's... this one is NICE!. Great daily driver or weekend cruiser, or addition to any collection...  really cool to look at and super fun to drive.

Body is super straight with no signs of rust or collision damage that I can see. Excellent driver condition repaint in datsun blue metallic presents beautifully with only minor niks and blemishes. Not a trailer queen show car... its a proud hot rod/driver. Underside is nice and clean. Period Correct mag rims with fresh tires. Pics tell the story on this one. It gets alot of looks especially when you hit the gas... :)  


Interior is in great shape. Seats,  Panels, headliner and carpet are very nice. Quality Dash cover and custom center console. Gauges and Electronics all work properly, even the clock...AMAZING!... :) Cold AC and modern upgraded sound system.

  High performance Chevy 350 motor starts, runs, and drives great... 
aluminum intake manifold, freshly rebuilt 4 barrel, up-dated electronic ignition, headers and custom side pipe exhaust sounds awesome. Nice machine work and installation. Motor starts, runs, and idles excellent... It hauls A**.  Incredibly responsive, sounds awesome and is extremely quick. Trans shifts smooth through the gears... Jumps off the line and cruises nice on the freeway. Suspension is all redone and feels tight and handles great...all new brake system stops straight and sure. SUPER nice driver.

Overall this is a really nice Rust Free Custom V8 Z car in great condition all around... Conversion was done right and feels AWESOME. Easy daily driver or weekend cruiser, or potential show car. I am a Z collector... this is a great one for any Z car enthusiast, collector, or anyone looking for a cool, vintage sports car at a great price... this is a real opportunity... :)

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.

Subaru Legacy pitted against Roadkill project cars

Fri, 05 Sep 2014

There's an evergreen debate among auto enthusiasts about whether they would prefer to have the latest and greatest car of today or a certified classic from yesteryear. What if you had to further define that, though, and the choice was between a brand new 2015 Subaru Legacy or a turbocharged Datsun 240Z with a hatch that wouldn't close? Roadkill aimed to find out that and more in one of its best videos to date.
According to the hosts, Subaru came to them, handed over some money and challenged Roadkill's project cars against its latest Legacy. The result is every bit as good (or better) than any automotive-themed show you could find on television.
Things start simple with a figure-eight race in a rodeo arena with the Subaru taking on Roadkill's 1968 Ford Ranchero, originally built for ice racing. From there the Legacy races a 1968 Dodge Charger with no windows around and off-road rally stage. Finally, the Subie goes head-to-head against the Rotsun, the aforementioned turbocharged 240Z, through an abandoned neighborhood. Plus, there's a bonus drag race challenging them all.

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:
