Have 240z restoration project for sale.

I purchased this car basically in a box …when I found it a kid had removed almost every nut and bolt. It had 1985 fender flares, cracked paint, no floor, what a mess, etc…I dragged the 240z home on a trailer along with several boxes of parts and have put many man hours into the build. Now the car is back together, runs great, and is almost ready to be painted and have the interior finished.
I intended on fully restoring the car however do not have the funds at this time. I have everything for the car including interior plastics, glass, etc. I do not have the rear bumper, rear badges, weather stripping, heater/ac unit and controls, front valance and original seats (the seats that came/come with the car are not from a 240z). The car also needs new tires and break lines as the existing lines show signs of wear. I have receipts for parts and a copy of the newspaper from 1985 that I found stuffed under the fender flares that I removed. I am willing to finish the car for the right buyer and negotiated price. With a little bit of work you could drive the car home! Car is located in Myrtle Beach SC. Have clean and clear title in hand and the car has a 45 day license plate.

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.

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.
