1973 240z Red With Black Interior. Restored on 2040-cars
Waleska, Georgia, United States
This is your chance to own one of the nicest 240Z's in the country. This car started life in New Mexico and was brought to Georgia a few years ago. I have restored this car to be factory correct down to the smallest detail other than a small hand full of items. Most notably but not limited to is the bumpers and carbs are from a 72. The valve cover is painted with a red wrinkle paint and the smog pump was not put back on. The 73 240Z had some features that the earlier cars didn't have which make it a nicer car to drive. The seat belts retract opposed to the pull tight type. The heater control panel is back lit and the seat backs adjust much easier with a lever opposed to the knob that the early cars had. The engine, radiator, carbs and the mechanical portion of the wipers have all been rebuilt. It runs and drives better than it did when it was new. The following is all new. Paint, all rubber seals, windshield, tires, brake calipers, master cylinder, struts, suspension bushings, clutch master cylinder, slave cylinder, leather seats (not vinyl), door panels, all the vinyl, all the interior panels, The carpets are not new but they were replaced and are in good condition. The pictures don't do it justice but everything in the engine compartment has be restored to like new and is show car worthy. You won't be disappointed. Every time I open the hood the first thing everyone says is Wow! The odometer shows 65388 but the mileage is exempt. The car has roughly 1000 miles since the restoration completion.

Roadkill pits every project car against each other
Sat, 22 Feb 2014The guys behind Motor Trend's monthly Roadkill series have collected nine of their favorite project cars from their videos and pitted them against each other in a battle royale to determine a winner. It's 44 minutes long, but it's completely worth the investment of time.
The cars run the gamut from a 1973 Chevrolet Ramp Truck, a 1975 AMC Pacer and a legitimately impressive 1967 Chevy Camaro, and they are pitted against each other to see which is the fastest around an autocross course. The drivers include Roadkill's two hosts and Motor Trend's Johnny Lieberman and Carlos Lago. It's reminiscent of the best episodes of Top Gear and worth a watch.
So it's the weekend - the perfect time to relax. Grab your preferred beverage, get comfortable and enjoy 44 minutes of some seriously ratty but utterly cool project cars as they are throttled within an inch of their lives (or past it). Scroll down to check out the video.
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.
First new Datsun in decade sketched, set for Indian reveal
Mon, 01 Jul 2013Nissan's Datsun nameplate revival will begin with two models bound for the Indian market. Nissan has released sketches of a five-door hatchback based on the Micra (codenamed K2) and a top-down view of a hood that could potentially be from a sedan.
The company's press release says all will be revealed on July 15 in New Delhi, India. The Datsun lineup will be first offered in 2014 to that country's ride-deprived residents as well as Indonesia and Russia. Later in 2014, South Africa will join the list.
We've heard Nissan plans for Datsuns to share platforms with company-owned Lada. In January, we heard the projected price tag could be around $3,000 USD to compete with Chinese imports. The official press release (which can be read in full below) says nothing about either of these reports, however.
