This is the 280z that collectors dream of! this is a 1976 in British racing green and has 20,795 original miles! This car has not moved since the early eighties and was kept in perfect storage. It is still sitting on 1976 tires which are very useable and match the spare. every sticker and stitch is in place but it does have a scrape where a van was parked too close about 10 years ago. I am completely serious when I say this is the best preserved Z I have ever seen all the rubber is soft black and flexible even the factory windshield wipers. The paint has no fade whatsoever but does have some stress marks from age here and there. even has the owners manual and dealer invoice sheet.

THERE IS ZERO RUST
I have been all over in and out on this car and there is genuinely hand on heart zero rust in this body

I have replaced the brake master cylinder, wheel cylinders and the brakes work great
I have replaced the clutch master cylinder and had a rod extension made, clutch works great
complete tune up and fluids change

All original parts come with it including the genuine Japanese air filter and fuel filter.

Still to be done:
I have an aluminum radiator with it (original has a seep at the top seam)
Needs a driver side mirror that was broken along with the scrape
Paint buffed: it has been waxed and covered but needs a little wax buffing to be new
A general safety check over.
Body work. see the photos. it will need actual body work to be perfect
Top end noise looked into

Has not been driven yet! this is still a perfection garage find that is in its first home and hasn't come out into daylight in 30 years. The engine has been started but only for 30 seconds or so and it was noisy. It is definately in the head and NOT a rod knock. It sounds like a clattery valve but could be due to sitting and may need run a bit more.

This is a collector restorer dream. this could be a museum piece. It is a rare little gem in a world of rotten run down and worn out Datsuns. Don't let this one get away it will truely be an investment piece.

Please ask any questions you might have now. This car is sold as is where is and will need a trailer. I will not negotiate or come down on your bid price when you arrive. if you are concerned please come and see it in person  or ask for specific photos. non refundable down payment of $500 via paypal due at auction end. Full payment due at pick up. I have all the factory paperwork and title is in my name

Datsun debuts new seven-seat Go+ in Indonesia [w/video]

Wed, 18 Sep 2013

The Datsun name may have long since been replaced by Nissan, but the old brand is making a comeback - in certain markets, at least. Nissan relaunched the Datsun brand in July as its new budget brand for developing markets with the debut of the Go hatchback, and has now followed up with the addition of the larger Go+.
Set to be built in Indonesia at Nissan's plant in Purwakarta, the Go+ debuts today in the capital of Jakarta as the second model in the new Datsun lineup. The seven-passenger minivan features flexible seating in a compact form 13 feet long, powered by an unspecified 1.2-liter engine mated to a five-speed manual transmission.
Nissan isn't saying much else about the model, but hopes the new Datsun twins will account for half of its sales in Indonesia within three years. The low price target for both models - set to come in at less than 100 million rupiah ($8,700) - ought to help it get there. The lineup is then scheduled to reach other markets, starting with India, Russia and South Africa next year.

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.
