Up for sale is a 1973 Datsun 240 automatic with approx. 104k original miles. Vin# HLS30133697 I have owned this car for about 6yrs. When I bought the car the body was very clean however the car had been painted once before and was faded and the original hood had a bend in the front edge so I decided to replace it with a very nice 280z hood. I bought the car originally to show my sons how to work on and do minor restore work and if necessary a college investment and since I have one going to college this coming year, this will be a good start. Most people recognize that these cars are becoming more and sought after. Engine upgrades, conversions, and modifications make these cars more popular every year. This 240z is an automatic car which is nice since it is so rare however, some might prefer to own a manual 4 speed . The car has been garaged majority of the time I have owned it. I drive it on nice days to and from work about 15miles each way. I also have taken it to some local car shows near and around town. I have all the original parts like the flat top carbs and air cleaner and misc., stuff I have replaced windshield, rubber gaskets, installed passenger mirror, carpet, dash cover. I have replaced flat top carbs with round top and chrome air covers. AC-unit was removed prior to me owning it. I have replaced heater hoses in and out from Z-Source. Front seats have been recovered. The car runs and drives good. The car is pretty straight and solid all the way around.

Exterior: Normal wear and tear it is no show car however it does turn heads. Glass on driver side has some pitting from when door was sand blasted. Front bumper not great could be replaced or re chromed. Rear bumper was re chromed and new rubber installed. New power antenna installed. New gas tank hoses. Gas tank was cleaned. I have installed new rubber seals. I still have some for the car that have not been installed that will go with like cowl hood seal etc. Also have a set of spare wheels and tires that came with the car look like 280z wheels with good tires very nice condition. The car currently has new wheels and tires and tire have about 5k on them. Paint showing wear some minor pits and cracking still looks good. Front bumper see photo. Lots of new emblems and rubber. I do also have a very nice rear Louver for the Z that will go with, I have not installed.Interior: Good condition overall. showing interior wear some cracking on tops of door panels. Very nice car not show. New carpet, Seats have been re-upholstered Console has broken plastic around choke lever area. Most panels good but have some cracks. I have covers and panels that may have not been shown in pictures. The floor pan on passenger side has a small patch 6x10 and the driver side has one also nothing structural.

I reserve the right to end the auction at any time the car is for sale locally. This car is 40yrs old I have tried to describe this vehicle as accurately and honestly as possible. Remember it is a used vehicle. As with any vehicle there may be issues that I have overlooked or am unaware of. This 240z is being sold as is basis. A $500.00 deposit within 48 hours of auction end and balance COD within 7 days. Buyer pays for shipping.

Meet the man who took a year sabbatical to drive his 1967 Datsun Fairlady Roadster

Tue, 28 Jan 2014

A 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.

This father and son duo terrorize the UK countryside in Datsun 240Z pair

Wed, 12 Nov 2014

The Datsun 240Z got a lot of things right when it was introduced, with handsome styling, strong performance and a reasonably affordable price. And while the coupes grew a strong fan base in the US, they remained quite a rarity in the UK. Decades later, a father and son in England have latched onto the car and bonded over their shared love for two completely opposite takes on this Japanese GT
There's already quite a collection of exotics in Mel Streek's garage, and his rat rod 240Z, which he calls the Ratsun, definitely doesn't fit with the rest. On the outside, the Datsun looks ready to fall apart, but it's mechanically perfect underneath. Alternatively, Mel's son, Ollie, has a completely different take for his Z with its perfect, shining paint.
Both Zs sound amazing, though. They have a mechanical, somewhat course exhaust note that's intoxicating to hear. You can definitely tell there's some work going on under the hood. Check out this video from Petrolicious for a father and son who both find something to love in these classic Japanese coupes.

Datsun previews new budget sedan for Russia [w/video]

Thu, 13 Mar 2014

Nobody does cars on the cheap quite like the Renault-Nissan Alliance. The former part of the equation already has its Dacia brand of cost-effective, no-frills vehicles that have become a favorite of Top Gear co-host James May, and last summer, the latter revived its Datsun nameplate for a budget brand of its own.
The reborn Datsun launched in India this past July with its Go hatchback, returned in September with the Go+ minivan and revealed the Redi-Go concept just last month. And now it's given us our first look at an upcoming budget sedan developed specifically for the Russian market.
The as-yet unnamed vehicle (which we'll bet will incorporate the word "go" into its nameplate somehow) is set to debut on April 4, where it will launch the Datsun brand in Russia. Few details are available at this point, but the low-cost sedan was designed in Japan to offer Russian drivers "an engaging driving experience, peace of mind ownership and accessibility at the right and transparent price, with a competitive Total Cost of Ownership."
