Datsun : Z-series Black 1978 Datsun 280z on 2040-cars
West Covina, California, United States
|
I bought this car because I needed an economical car for everyday long distance travel. I never had any mechanical problems in my 4 years of owning it, during which it has been one of the most reliable cars I have owned. Due to a new job I bought a truck and have no more use for this car. So It's been sitting for a year on a non-opt registration. I tuned up the car right before placing this ad and replaced every vacuum, fuel hose, and clamps. I bought two new tires and got the carpet replaced. It also comes with a brand-new center console and 4 new shocks. As you can see in the pictures, I have many extra parts for this car: Rear wing 2 chrome side-view mirrors Custom made headers Brand new 500 cfm Edelbrock carburetor I'll also include everything necessary to repaint the car yellow. Paint, paint thinner, filters, and mixing sticks. If you're truly interested or if you have any questions feel free to contact me anytime at 626-722-3259. If I don't answer please leave me a text and I'll reply ASAP. Contact me before clicking "Buy it now" for a discount PLEASE NO LOW-BALLERS Consider that this is a very solid car and feel free to compare it to other listings. |

Datsun debuts new seven-seat Go+ in Indonesia [w/video]
Wed, 18 Sep 2013The Datsun name may have long since been replaced by Nissan, but the old brand is making a comeback - in certain markets, at least.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.
37K miles in a 1967 Datsun Roadster
Tue, 11 Mar 2014When 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.
