Twain Harte, California, United States
*** RIM FIRE FORCES SALE*** I am 2nd owner. the Uncle worked for Nissan and arranged for his sister -in-law to receive this car for her Christmas present in December of 1977. the family in red bluff used the car thru the wife and four children who used it to commute to college. after the last son had finished with it , it sat for a bit. grand children on trikes put a few scratches on it and broke the mast on the antenna.there is a spot on either side behind the rear wheel that is starting to bubble, but all in all it is super solid. front seats have sheep skin covers that breath and are washable. i've never taken them off. has a small tear in the corner seam of rear seat. when I bought it I installed a new high power coil, fresh air intake and clutch slave valve. and I have been driving it ever since. took it to Monterrey , was super comfortable the whole way.makes great power and good on gas. all guages work, even the clock. air conditioning blows ice cold, rear defogger, intermittent wipers all work great. Eclipse stereo .tires under a year old, currently smogged. comes with the factory cold air intake that was removed and an assortment of O.E.M. parts including new upholstery for the front seats,factory center console cover, bra,manuals and dealers brocure. the only reason we are selling is because we were impacted by the rim fire and find ourselves now needing the money.

Autoblog Podcast #339:
Nissan IDx 'in the plan' for production, needs support from fans [w/poll]
Wed, 15 Jan 2014If 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."
Subaru Legacy pitted against Roadkill project cars
Fri, 05 Sep 2014There's an evergreen debate among auto enthusiasts about whether they would prefer to have the latest and greatest car of today or a certified classic from yesteryear. What if you had to further define that, though, and the choice was between a brand new 2015 Subaru Legacy or a turbocharged Datsun 240Z with a hatch that wouldn't close? Roadkill aimed to find out that and more in one of its best videos to date.
According to the hosts, Subaru came to them, handed over some money and challenged Roadkill's project cars against its latest Legacy. The result is every bit as good (or better) than any automotive-themed show you could find on television.
Things start simple with a figure-eight race in a rodeo arena with the Subaru taking on Roadkill's 1968 Ford Ranchero, originally built for ice racing. From there the Legacy races a 1968 Dodge Charger with no windows around and off-road rally stage. Finally, the Subie goes head-to-head against the Rotsun, the aforementioned turbocharged 240Z, through an abandoned neighborhood. Plus, there's a bonus drag race challenging them all.
