This is it! The ultimate z car! Just in time for those fall foliage rides!
1978 Datsun 280Z 5 Speed Manual Transmission Original numbers matching Fuel Injected Straight-6 cylinder engine Rust-Free! 140K miles Clean title. Factory A/C! COLD AC and hot heat! Straight body! Runs and drives great! Strong engine, smooth shifting transmission. Brakes and tires in very good condition. This is a real gem! Has been my daily driver since I bought it from the original owner, and it still drives like a dream. A clean original 280z with a 5 speed manual with working factory A/C that isn't rusted and still runs great is really hard to find in the northeast. This car has been well cared for, with a lot of improvements to make sure it performs at its best for years to come. PA inspected til 2015, currently located in northeast NJ. New: Original transmission was rebuilt ~10,000 miles ago. Shifts beautifully! New Clutch Starter Front suspension tie rods, tie rod covers, radial arms and radial arm bushings Stabilizer links and bushings Headlights Battery Alternator Intake Manifold Radiator Gaskets and Hoses Electrical connectors and wires Rotor cap Distributor Spark plugs and spark plug wires Fuses & Fusible links Radio with CD player Full undercoating Oil and fluids and filters changed regularly Original 240Z chrome sideview mirrors (including passenger side! Hard to find!) +Extra outer trim pieces, extra filters, fuses, original owners manual, etc. included! Paint is slightly oxidized and crackled in places. The original seats are starting to tear - I use seat covers, included. Reupholster them and put on a fresh coat of paint and you have a show car, or drive as is! This car is so much fun, not to mention a serious babe magnet. I had to switch to a 4-seater so now I'm hoping to pass on my dream car to someone else who will treat it well. Fly/train in and drive it home! Or come pick it up with a friend or trailer. CASH only, no trades, no lowballers, will not ship - local pickup only. I am listing this on other websites and reserve the right to cancel the auction at any time. |

Datsun debuts new seven-seat Go+ in Indonesia [w/video]
Wed, 18 Sep 2013The Datsun name may have long since been replaced by Nissan, but the old brand is making a comeback - in certain markets, at least.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.
Malaise Era All-Stars
Fri, 17 May 2013A few weeks ago, we bid a fond happy 40th anniversary to the automotive dark ages of 1973-84 that have come to be known as "The Malaise Era" - the performance ice-age when 160 horsepower was a lot and a 0-60 time of under 10 seconds was remarkable. Like music in the 1980s, everything in automobiledom didn't suck, however. There were a few bright spots. Here are five of our favorites:

This father and son duo terrorize the UK countryside in Datsun 240Z pair
Wed, 12 Nov 2014The Datsun 240Z got a lot of things right when it was introduced, with handsome styling, strong performance and a reasonably affordable price. And while the coupes grew a strong fan base in the US, they remained quite a rarity in the UK. Decades later, a father and son in England have latched onto the car and bonded over their shared love for two completely opposite takes on this Japanese GT
There's already quite a collection of exotics in Mel Streek's garage, and his rat rod 240Z, which he calls the Ratsun, definitely doesn't fit with the rest. On the outside, the Datsun looks ready to fall apart, but it's mechanically perfect underneath. Alternatively, Mel's son, Ollie, has a completely different take for his Z with its perfect, shining paint.
Both Zs sound amazing, though. They have a mechanical, somewhat course exhaust note that's intoxicating to hear. You can definitely tell there's some work going on under the hood. Check out this video from Petrolicious for a father and son who both find something to love in these classic Japanese coupes.
