79 Datsun 280zx two seater. 6cyl. engine that runs great with a five speed manual trans that's shifts nice & the clutch grabs right off the floor. The car is close to completely rust free as you can see in the pics. No rust on any of the floors or trunk, rockers door bottoms, fenders. The driver fender was replaced do to a crease in it with no other damage as seen in pics. It was replaced with a rust free used fender not aftermarket. The car was bought new in N.C. and then went to Tenn. for the rest of it's life, my cousin bought it off the orig. owner & I have the window sticker & all the paper work from when the car was bought new. It has a clean Tenn. title as I am selling it for my cousin. The car has only been in MI. for six months & was indoors. The brake system has been gone through with a new master cyl. all new rubber brake hoses, rebuilt calipers in rear, new pads & turned the rotors. New fuel pump & filter, New battery, Rebuilt starter & dist. New spark plugs. All new temp. senders. Everything works on the car but the a/c that should work with a recharge. Factory a/c car with four wheel power disc brakes. It has power windows, mirrors, ant. All the gauges work but the gas gauge jumps around a bit when driving. I have been driving the car around on nice days so other than some cosmetics it's a driver right now. The tires are good but they shake a little about 60 mph. I have headlight covers & a complete weather-strip kit that goes with it. Have the car for sale locally so I reserve the right to end the auction early if sold locally. Call or e-mail any questions to Doug at 586-722-8050

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.

Meet the man who took a year sabbatical to drive his 1967 Datsun Fairlady Roadster

Tue, 28 Jan 2014

A quiet drive in the country can be the most relaxing thing in the world. What if it didn't have to end, and you could keep driving for a week, a month or even a whole year? That's what Scott Fisher is doing by taking a one-year sabbatical from work and driving his 1967 Datsun Fairlady Roadster around North America.
"I had owned a manufacturing business in Las Vegas for 16 years. I knew I needed to kinda' get out, and unwind, and get my mojo back," said Fisher.
Fisher's trip has covered over 30,000 miles through 44 states and 7 Canadian Provinces, and it is not over yet. He left from his home in Las Vegas, NV, last spring and drove to the Pacific. From there, he drove up the coast to the Canadian border and aimed the car for the Atlantic. He just posted on his blog about visiting the Nissan headquarters and museum in Franklin, TN, and his next stops are Mississippi and New Orleans, LA.
