This is a nicely done Custom 280Z V8 conversion in really nice, low mile restored condition. Classic Z car has been
professionally converted and customized... ready for daily driver, cruises, or local shows. All the custom work
including body, interior, drivetrain, and suspension have been redone professionally. This Z is great all around.
Looks, runs, feels, and drives awesome... FAST and smooth. Excellent weekend cruiser, daily driver, or addition to
any collection.
Body is straight with no rust or collision damage that I can see. Fit and finish are very nice. Driver quality
custom repaint presents beautifully with minor blemishes. Seams and rubbers are great. Underside is clean with
original undercoating. This is a driver!!
Interior is in nice condition as well. Panels, carpet, and headliner all look great...Custom seats fit and feel
great. Dash has a nice cover. Fully insulated, feels quiet and tight. Electronics work properly. Custom tach
installed... speedo not hooked up but I'll try to take care of that this week.
BEST PART... rebuilt chevy 350 V8 Motor starts, runs, and idles excellent... performance enhancements but built for
daily driver relaiability, Super responsive and nicely tuned. Rebuilt 3 speed Auto Trans shifts smooth through the
gears. Car has great street manners and is FAST!!!... Super fun to drive!! Sounds mean but not obnoxious through
custom exhaust. Suspension feels tight and handles excellent. Goes down the road straight with no wiggles,
shimmies, or shakes... Stops straight and sure. EXCELLENT, FAST driver.
Overall this is a Super nice Custom Z in great condition all around... it is extremely well preserved. Awesome
weekend cruiser, show car, or addition to any collection. I am a Z collector... this is a great one for any Z car
enthusiast, collector, or anyone looking for a cool, original vintage sports car at a great price.

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.

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:
