I started this as a project, but marriage, a new son, and a new house have gotten in the way. I spent well over $3000 in parts, etc, and this will be a really nice car when completed, but I no longer have the time or space. My loss is your gain. Car has been garaged since I've owned it. Too nice of a car to part out, but at this price, you could buy it for parts. I was told when I bought the car that the miles were original and actual. From the condition of the car when I got it, I believe that to be accurate. Car is complete, minus carpet and rubber door and window seals. Body is in good condition for the age. The car was Ziebarted when new. The only real rust on car was the driver's side floor (which has been cut out for repair) and rocker panel. All removable body panels are off the car. Most of the body has been stripped back to bare metal for a respray. Some body work was started. Some of the body panels have been primed with PPG self-etching primer. All glass is good, including windshield and backlight with defrost. New upholstery for the interior. New front brakes, clutch master and slave cylinders, etc. Clear WV title.

Buyer is responsible for shipping. Car ran and drove when parked, but the clutch slave cylinder was bad. Fuel tank has since been drained and removed. All running gear is still in car. Rolls and steers. I will help with shipping as far as: boxing all parts, temporarily re-attaching doors, fenders, hood and hatch, and helping to load. I would recommend a closed trailer to prevent any parts from being lost if a box falls over, etc. Most bolts are in baggies attached to the part they hold on, or in the original threaded bolt holes. I WILL NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY PARTS OR FASTENERS LOST, STOLEN, BROKEN OR OTHERWISE MISPLACED OR DAMAGED IN TRANSIT!!!!!

This car is for sale, complete, but disassembled. AS-IS, Where-is. I strongly urge anyone bidding to visit and look at the car in person, or send a trusted representative so you know exactly what you are buying. I have tried to make my description of  this car as accurate and honest as possible. Description is for informative purposes only and is my personal opinion. In no way is my description to be construed as a warranty or guarantee of any type. Please understand that this is a 37 year old car, not a new car. This car has been disassembled for restoration, it is not a running and driving vehicle. 

This is a NO RESERVE auction. Whatever the final bid price is what the car will sell for. I have 100% positive feedback. Bid with confidence. By bidding on this car, you are entering into a legally binding contract. Non-paying bidders will be prosecuted. Buyer responsible for securing shipment or transport of vehicle at buyers cost. A non-refundable $500 deposit is due within 48 hours of auction close. Full payment due within 7 days of auction close. Neither the car nor the title will be released until payment in full is made.

Nissan IDx 'in the plan' for production, needs support from fans [w/poll]

Wed, 15 Jan 2014

If there's a trend in the auto industry we can firmly get behind, it's the small, light and affordable rear-drive coupe. The positive critical reception to the Scion FR-S and Subaru BRZ twins has encouraged other manufacturers to look at building their own rear drivers, and even a few to show actual concept cars based on the idea. The Chevrolet Code 130R from 2012 and more recently, the Nissan IDx twins that were first shown at the 2013 Tokyo Motor Show both come to mind, as does the brand-new Kia GT4 Stinger Concept.
Nissan trotted out the IDx Nismo and the IDx Freeflow for another showing in Detroit and we'll admit to being totally smitten with both cars. Again. The duo draw inspiration from the iconic Datsun 510, a lightweight, affordable rear-driver that remains a cult favorite decades after production ended.
Now, a report from our friends at AutoWeek reveals that we may, possibly, hopefully see a production IDx, provided fans make a strong enough case for it. "It's in the plan," Nissan product boss Andy Palmer told AW. According to the report, Palmer said the IDx is "into the first sage of the development process. The next stage is project validation and then looking at the business case. It's no one's intent to waste millions of the company's money, so obviously we have a good feeling about this one."

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.

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.
