The Good: Runs, stops, floors and front frame rails replaced with Bad Dog parts ($2k job), brand new tires ($600), original motor and trans, comes with 280z motor and 5 speed extra, have black vinyl and carpet in boxes, dual Webers, will go 120 MPH down the highway, is not currently suffering from any sort of major rust problems!

The Work needed: Has ugly sunroof that leaks a little, interior was gutted so I could fix the floors and frame rails, front carb leaks a little fuel (I would get some rebuilt SU's), gas tank filler tube leaks if you fill the tank all the way, cheaper paint job over original brown in the early 1990's, side moulding removed and now has holes that need to be filled, body panels could stand to be adjust for gaps and smoothed out by a body guy, header gasket needs to be replaced, small hole about 1 foot from exhaust tip, interior needs to be thrown back together, some of the door moldings have been removed and will have to be replaced in order to drive in the rain.

My best friends brother owned this car in the early 1980's, my best friend owned it through the 1990's when we were in high school. I bought from him in 2010 because he has a family and didn't drive it. It is originally a Maine car and I have the original owner's book with the purchaser's name in it. I also have the paperwork from repairs that were made. Nothing too amazing there. Dash reads 68K miles and I believe that to be true. You can only drive this car for 5 or so months of the year in Maine. But the title is exempt because some repair papers stated that the mileage was higher. Either way the car runs and drives fine (needs a carb tune badly).

Bottom line, good car that needs someone who know cars to make really great.

Hit me up with questions and I will answer them.

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."

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.

Datsun officially reborn with Go model for India [w/video]

Mon, 15 Jul 2013

In March of 2012, Nissan announced the return of its historic Datsun brand. Datsun used to represent the Nissan brand in a number of markets, but its badge hasn't been worn on a new model since 1981. In 2013, though, it has been relaunched as the Japanese manufacturer's budget offering in the emerging markets of India and Russia.
The model that will lead that charge, at least in India, is the Go, a car that pays tribute to the very first Datsun, the DAT-GO.
The operative term with the Datsun brand is: "budget offering." Don't step inside the Go and expect beautiful hides or brushed metals (it's being sold in India, after all). The instrument cluster features a simple speedometer, while the five-speed manual and the center stack above it are rather barren. It's not without luxuries, though, as iPod-style connectivity is available through a Mobile Docking Station.
