I977 Datsun 280Z, 5015 actual miles, auto trans,Been sitting on and off for some time, Previous owners bought new in Calif. Have documentation on most of the history of car, Going thru some of the service records and history orig. owner had trouble with fuel inj. from almost day one, probably mostly from not being driven enough, or just plain trouble I would guess, They sold it and the owner I bought it from said he drove it and it ran fine until sediment plugged up the fuel inj. again. Anyway long story short he took it to a shop and they started replacing some fuel parts and labor which were adding up money wise pretty fast. I Believe they never flushed the gas tank ( In their defense they were told it was clean and it wasn't) Anyway he finally got kinda frustrated with the progress or lack there of and also he winding down on the toys( He is in his mid to late 70's) Car has had some paint work over the years, He said a car cover was on the car when he was trailering it cross country from old home to new home. Car is not mint, mint but pretty close and overall very nice and super low miles.
Overall it is a neat car, I took the gas tank out and it needs to be boiled out or treated. Car will not run unless fuel system is fixed. When I found out about the car I looked it over pretty good, neat color, overall cond. matched miles and interior is excellent with no wear or cracks. It is a two seater not the 2+2. At first I wasn't crazy about the auto because I personally think a manual tranny is more desirable in a Z but with the miles and the overall shape cars come up like this very rarely. I never planned to sell it until I sorted it out and I still might not, Deal is a friend of mine told me today he is selling his very orig. 57 Chev, and he gave me an opportunity to buy it, so I am going to put a few things on ebay that I would never sell so soon. I work a lot and with older cars and motorcycles I own time just seems to be flying by, plus just plain time to downsize maybe or think about it. If deal falls thru on Chev I am going to remove all my listings to be honest. But I am going to give it a shot, just got home from looking at it and went right on computer. I encourage any questions please e-mail me thru ebay and I will also talk to you in person. Or please look at in person if possible before bidding, nothing to hide but when buying something of value be prudent, I am fussy,check my feedback and what I have sold, not much but all excellent cond. items. That is the way it should be Honest seller to Buyer. No games or scams please, I think I have read or heard about most of them. I am not a dealer. Private collector, Friends tease me because I rarely sell anything, but here goes. I have owned a few Porsche's over the years, most were very low mile orig. cars, some of the later ones were Bosch FI, Good friend of mine owns a high end foreign repair shop and he services and races Porsche's (944, gt3, Cayman S) you name it they are very trick and spendy. He told me to keep it FI and he would even help me get it up and running, he also said some FI parts are now pretty reasonable priced while some Bosch parts are spendy so check. I also thought about putting Dual carbs like the early Z's, Talked to a few vendors that do the carb conversion properly and they gave me estimates of about 850.00 - 1000.00 with air cleaner to do it right. It's a toss up troublesome FI or carbs both about the same to get back on road, I was leaning on putting carbs( They look and sound cool) on and keep all the factory equipment. I know alot of guys are putting in small block chevys in these also (I also have some older chevy muscle cars) relatively easy swap but car is too nice to not keep not orig. Also going to list 1941 ford 2dr. nice orig. Also maybe some of my vintage motorcycles also(35+) Right to end auction any time, for sale locally. Cash or bank wire, certified funds, us buyers only, in the event of a sale, car does not get shipped until funds clear. Thanks Mike |

Datsun previews new budget sedan for Russia [w/video]
Thu, 13 Mar 2014Nobody 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."
Datsun expands low-cost revival with new Mi-Do in Moscow [w/video]
Fri, 29 Aug 2014Those 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.
Datsun officially reborn with Go model for India [w/video]
Mon, 15 Jul 2013In 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.
