1977 Nissan Datsun 280z for sale. Automatic transmission, only 5,000 miles on it. Has had an engine rebuild from about 8 years ago, have receipts.
Pros:
Body is in good condition, relatively little rust considering the age
Has been painted recently
Runs very well when it starts, needs to be jumped
Interior needs some work but is for the most part very good
New distributor, alternator (may need to be replaced), voltage regulator, master brake cylinder, brake booster and brake seals in rear. Literally just got out of shop, have receipts
Cons:
Has some major electrical problems, might have a short somewhere, may have killed the alternator
Idles a little low and has some ignition trouble, usually takes a few tries when it's been sitting for a little while, but runs beautifully once it gets going.
Will need new radio, last one broke (also was an aftermarket piece of garbage)
Will need a new dash at some point (does have a custom carpet dash cover) and will need to be reupholstered.
Some minor water leakage in the back, seals on the rear window (and most other places) are degrading.
I recently bought this car but am unable to afford to keep it. The electrical problems have unfortunately caused it to break down a few times, pretty sure we've narrowed it down to being a possible short somewhere under the dash, but am in desperate need of a good commuter car, so need to sell this one. Had 4,000 miles in it when I purchased it, so only put on 1,000, but was a very solid 1,000 miles. Very solid car aside from the electrical problems. Definitely easily restorable.

Renault COO Tavares dreams of running GM or Ford
Fri, 16 Aug 2013What do you do if you're in a job with no upward mobility? Admittedly, most of us just stick it out while secretly hoping our boss is sacked for all those paperclips he's been swiping, netting us a nice, shiny promotion. Then again, most of us aren't the number two at Renault, like Carlos Tavares.
Tavares is the right-hand man to Renault CEO, Carlos Ghosn, and like a lot of us, he's ready for another challenge. As Ghosn is only 59 years old and doesn't have a boss to fire him for paperclip theft, though, it's pretty unlikely that he'll be going anywhere anytime soon. Tavares doesn't seem too concerned, based on an interview he gave to Automotive News. "We have a big leader and he is here to stay," Tavares told AN.
What's surprising is where Tavares wants to go, "Why not GM? I would be honored to lead a company like GM." The Renault exec also mentioned Ford, and as AN points out, both organizations make a lot of sense. Both are led by CEOs that are approaching or are already past retirement age, and should be looking for dedicated replacements in the not-so-distant future. That doesn't mean Tavares is a shoe-in, though.
Nissan Juke Nismo RS reveal confirmed by LA Auto Show
Thu, 10 Oct 2013With the LA Auto Show a little more than a month away, we're getting a good idea of which cars we'll be seeing there. Show organizers have issued a press release that names numerous debuts we've heard about already, and one that caught our eye as brand new: the Nissan Juke Nismo RS.
We first heard about the Juke Nismo RS last year, and reported news of track-focused handling upgrades as well as a boost in power to the tune of 270 horsepower - an increase of 73 hp over a standard Juke. There is still no definitive word as to what else the will come with the Nismo RS package.
In addition to the Juke, we hear that the Nismo brand will also help unveil a new concept vehicle for Nissan on the LA stage.
Nissan bringing 'New Sedan Concept' to Beijing Motor Show
Mon, 10 Mar 2014During the 2014 Detroit Auto Show, Nissan showed off its Sport Sedan Concept (pictured above), an orange creation meant to foreshadow the next generation of the brand's "Four-Door Sports Car," the Maxima. For the 2014 Beijing Motor Show, though, Nissan is going to deliver a Chinese take on a future four-door, with the New Sedan Concept (imaginative name, we know).
Like the Nissan Friend-Me Concept from the 2013 Shanghai Motor Show, the NSC has been designed by Nissan Design China in Beijing. Outside of that, information is in short supply. Nissan claims this latest concept is targeted at the Chinese digital lifestyle. Whether it serves as an evolution of the Friend-Me's swoopy design or a regional take on Nissan's Detroit concept, though, remains to be seen.
We'll have the full slate of info on the Nissan New Sedan Concept, along with everything else that happens at the 2014 Beijing Motor Show, when the floor opens on April 23. Take a look below for the official press release from Nissan, which also includes a recap of previously debuted models that will be shown at Beijing.
