 FOR BID IS AN ORIGINAL UNMOLESTED 1974 260Z WITH 50,000 ORIGINAL MILES. ORIGINAL OWNER SOLD TO MY FRIEND IN 2003 WHO IN TURN SOLD TO ME LAST YEAR. VEHICLE WAS SELDOM DRIVEN AND SAT IN GARAGE THROUGHOUT THE 1980`S AND LATE 1990`S. I HAVE A CLEAR CALIFORNIA TITLE IN MY NAME. HERE IS CONDITION OF VEHICLE.

CAR STARTS FINE WITH CHOKE ON. WARMS UP AND RUNS WITH A SLIGHT HESITATION DUE TO DIRTY CARB OR CARBS. ONCE IT IS WARM IT IMMEDIATELY STARTS WITH A QUICK TURN OF KEY. AT SOME POINT THE DISTRIBUTOR DID NOT HAVE JUICE, AND A BYPASS WIRE APEARS TO HAVE BEEN INSTALLED, WHICH IS PROBABLY WHY THE TACHOMETER DOES NOT WORK. I HAVE DRIVEN THE CAR ON THE HIGHWAY AND RUNS FINE. THE TIRES ARE OLD AND SLIGHTLY OUT OF ROUND AND WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED. I INSTALLED A NEW CLUTCH MASTER CYLINDER, AND PURCHASED A NEW SLAVE CYLINDER WHICH HAS NOT BEEN INSTALLED.TRANSMISSION SHIFTS GREAT. THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL MOUNT SEEMS TO BE BAD. IT THUMPS WHEN YOU SHIFT HARD. IT WILL ALSO NEED TO BE REPLACED.A/C AND SMOG PUMPS ARE THERE AND CURRENTLY HAVE THE FAN BELTS CONNECTED AND RUNNING.

THE BODY IS STRAIGHT WITH ABSOLUTELY NO RUST. IT HAS ORIGINAL PAINT, AND HAS NEVER BEEN IN ANY ACCIDENT OR HAD ANY BODY PANELS REPLACED. DRIVER DOOR NEEDS A GOOD PUSH TO CLOSE IT FIRMLY. THE SPARE TIRE AREA SHOWS THE ORIGINAL COLOR AND THE SPARE TIRE IS ORIGINAL AND APPEARS TO HAVE NEVER BEEN USED OR EVEN MOUNTED ON THE VEHICLE.

THE INTERIOR NEEDS WORK ON BOTH SEATS AND THE DASH HAS CRACKED FROM BEING PARKED IN THE SUN FOR A FEW YEARS. NO BROKEN GLASS. THE DOOR WEATHERSTRIPPING NEEDS REPLACING. HEADLINER HANGS JUST A BIT, HARDLY NOTICEABLE.

ALL LIGHTS WORK AND GAUGES AS I STATED WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE TACHOMETER. INTERIOR DOME LIGHT AND REVERSE, HAZAERD, AND CONSOLE LIGHT WORK AS WELL. IGNITION KEY ALSO LOCKS GLOVE BOX, REAR HATCH, AND BOTH DOORS. WIPERS WORK WELL. STEERING WHEEL FOAM HAS DRIED UP AND MAY NEED REPLACING. 

OVERALL A VERY NICE CANDIDATE FOR RESTORATION OR A QUICK PAINT FOR A FLASHY DAILY DRIVER. THANK YOU AND GOOD LUCK.

Datsun reveals new On-Do budget sedan in Russia [w/video]

Tue, 08 Apr 2014

When Nissan revived the Datsun brand name, it essentially hit the "undo" button on the rebranding it undertook decades ago. But this time, the Datsun name is being used solely as a budget brand for developing markets. The reborn marque 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 back again with the new On-Do sedan.
Launched in Moscow by CEO Carlos Ghosn, the On-Do was designed and engineered in Japan specifically for the Russian market - Nissan's fifth largest worldwide - where it will be built at the AvtoVaz plant in Togliatti. Decidedly budget-oriented, the Datsun On-Do is a four-door, five-seat econo-box measuring 172 inches long, 67 inches wide and 60 inches tall with an 18.7 cubic-foot trunk which Datsun describes as class-leading. Punctuating an otherwise bland shape is a large front grille and lighting front and rear that looks (and very well might be) bigger than the wheels.
Not that the Datsun On-Do needs a big contact patch to transfer power to the road: motivation is provided by a 1.6-liter engine with a grand total of - wait for it... wait a little longer - 87 horsepower. Which might strike you as a reasonable amount of muscle, considering the 400,000 rubles Datsun is getting for the On-Do (but consider that translates to about $11,300). That's a couple grand more than what Nissan gets for the Micra in that other giant northern country, or about the same amount it gets for the Versa in the US (which sells in Russia for 499k in rubles) - both of which are powered by what is in all likelihood the same 1.6-liter four but producing 109 hp. Of course Russia has different tax rates than the United States or Canada, but with such little power, the Datsun would fall into Russia's lowest tax bracket.

Datsun expands low-cost revival with new Mi-Do in Moscow [w/video]

Fri, 29 Aug 2014

Those who were disappointed when Datsun changed its name to Nissan over three decades ago may have been pleased to see the marque revived last year, even as a budget brand. Nissan's counterpart to its ally Renault's Dacia budget brand, Datsun has been steadily expanding its lineup of low-cost transportation for developing markets with the debut of the Go hatchback in India, the Go+ minivan in Indonesia and the On-Do sedan in Russia. And now it has returned to Moscow to reveal its fourth model, the Mi-Do.
Based closely on the On-Do sedan (which itself is based on the Lada Granta) the Mi-Do takes on a five-door hatchback bodystyle but with no more frills. It uses the same front-drive chassis with the same wheelbase as the sedan, but its chopped tail makes it a good foot and a half shorter overall. Into that compact shape, Datsun has fitted dual airbags, ABS and... well, that's about it. It's got a 1.6-liter, eight-valve inline-four kicking out a grand total of 87 horsepower to either a five-speed manual or a four-speed automatic. Bare bones, this is.
While delivery of the first On-Do sedans commences next month (with the first example going to an IT specialist in Omsk), the Mi-Do is set to begin delivery early next year. Scope out the video and press release below from the Mi-Do's reveal at the Moscow Motor Show.

First new Datsun in decade sketched, set for Indian reveal

Mon, 01 Jul 2013

Nissan'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.
