1971 Datsun 240Z Series 1

On February 23rd, 1971 Fred Moore purchased this Datsun brand new. This is a true one owner car, that I purchased from Fred over a month ago. In 1988, it was the last time the Datsun was driven, Fred parked it, because it had a universal joint going out. It sat in his garage until a month ago, untouched.

I have not tried to start the car, it does turn over. this car is super original, and was re-painted in the early 80's Silver. it is originally Lime Green.

Body:
There is a little rust in the car, but floor pans and spare tire well seem to be perfect.
There is a dent in the driver door, I think this can be removed easily.
All glass is original Datsun glass.
In the late 70's, Fred's wife backed into the car, at that time, an orange fender and hood from a 1973 240Z was put on.

Interior:
The interior is in amazing original condition.
The driver seat shows all of the wear, and the carpet is a little faded. Besides that, the interior is pristine.
There are no cracks in the dash.
Car still has original AM radio.
Driver door panel is a little curled at the bottom.
The original jack as well as the original wheel chocks are behind the seat in original position.
The tire tools are in their proper bag.
I was told when you bought these cars, you got a quart of touch up paint, which there is a quart of paint in the car.

Tires/Wheels:
The original Series 1 hubcaps are on the car, although the rims that are on the car are not the originals. But, I do have the 4 original rims.
The tires are old and dry rotted.

Drive Train:
Under the hood, the car is completely original, and does turn over.
Transmission shifts
The car has very little brakes.
I have not tried to start car.

This car deserves a complete restoration.

The build date was December 1970.

This car has the vents on the rear deck lid, instead of behind the side windows.

This is a no reserve auction.

I can help load the car for the shipper, buyer is responsible for paying for shipping.

Call me with any questions at 859-621-0445.

First new Datsun in decade sketched, set for Indian reveal

Mon, 01 Jul 2013

Nissan's Datsun nameplate revival will begin with two models bound for the Indian market. Nissan has released sketches of a five-door hatchback based on the Micra (codenamed K2) and a top-down view of a hood that could potentially be from a sedan.
The company's press release says all will be revealed on July 15 in New Delhi, India. The Datsun lineup will be first offered in 2014 to that country's ride-deprived residents as well as Indonesia and Russia. Later in 2014, South Africa will join the list.
We've heard Nissan plans for Datsuns to share platforms with company-owned Lada. In January, we heard the projected price tag could be around $3,000 USD to compete with Chinese imports. The official press release (which can be read in full below) says nothing about either of these reports, however.

37K miles in a 1967 Datsun Roadster

Tue, 11 Mar 2014

When we think of comfy, long-distance road cars, there are a few obvious choices. A Mercedes-Benz S-Class, Bentley Continental GT or, assuming fuel efficiency isn't paramount, a Range Rover are all good options for a road trip. But what if that road trip was 37,000 miles? Maybe something more reliable but still comfortable, then, like a Honda Accord. What about a 1967 Datsun Roadster?
As insane as it sounds, Scott Fisher is doing just that, running a Datsun 1600 Roadster across North America and racking up 13,500 miles in his first three months on the road. His total journey will see him pile over 37,000 miles on his red convertible. The car is lightly modified, but most of the work is for the sake of reliability and comfort, with a five-speed manual 'box, an upgraded radiator and electronic ignition.
Fisher's trip hasn't been all smooth, with a few typical bits of trouble. He also ran into some deer in Utah, quite literally, clipping one of the animals, which delivered quite a bit of damage to the passenger's front fender (hence the rear three-quarter view in our lead shot). Still, the car seems to be holding up well, as shown in this latest video from Petrolicious.
