This is an incredible survivor West Coast original 1973 240Z. I purchased this car from its second owner and did a restoration last year. The car received new paint, stripped to bare metal revealing no rust or prior collision damage. Refinished in a contemporary Root Beer Metallic Brown that is simply stunning!! The interior was redone in a complementing two tone tan with black carpet and the suspension bushings and tires were replaced for excellent ride quality.The only modification from stock is the addition of dual Weber carburetors installed when the car was new by the dealership in Fontana California. The car runs like new. Original paperwork from the dealership & maintenance receipts are included. Records from the previous owners indicate a history of professional regular maintenance. Odometer indicates 86,000, which I assume is original miles but from the condition may have been reset from a rebuild on the engine? Mechanically the car is in exceptional condition with no known mechanical issues. My wife drives it regularly and we have had great response at all the car shows. I have listed the vehicle for a Co-Work here on ebay if you have any questions feel free to call him directly his name is Glenn Call 503-577-2225 This vehicle has no warrenties and is sold in "AS-IS" condition so please ask your questions first before bidding and the buyer is responsible for ALL shipping cost no exceptions! Thanks for looking....

Autoblog Podcast #339:
Roadkill pits every project car against each other
Sat, 22 Feb 2014The guys behind Motor Trend's monthly Roadkill series have collected nine of their favorite project cars from their videos and pitted them against each other in a battle royale to determine a winner. It's 44 minutes long, but it's completely worth the investment of time.
The cars run the gamut from a 1973 Chevrolet Ramp Truck, a 1975 AMC Pacer and a legitimately impressive 1967 Chevy Camaro, and they are pitted against each other to see which is the fastest around an autocross course. The drivers include Roadkill's two hosts and Motor Trend's Johnny Lieberman and Carlos Lago. It's reminiscent of the best episodes of Top Gear and worth a watch.
So it's the weekend - the perfect time to relax. Grab your preferred beverage, get comfortable and enjoy 44 minutes of some seriously ratty but utterly cool project cars as they are throttled within an inch of their lives (or past it). Scroll down to check out the video.
Datsun officially reborn with Go model for India [w/video]
Mon, 15 Jul 2013In March of 2012, Nissan announced the return of its historic Datsun brand. Datsun used to represent the Nissan brand in a number of markets, but its badge hasn't been worn on a new model since 1981. In 2013, though, it has been relaunched as the Japanese manufacturer's budget offering in the emerging markets of India and Russia.
The model that will lead that charge, at least in India, is the Go, a car that pays tribute to the very first Datsun, the DAT-GO.
The operative term with the Datsun brand is: "budget offering." Don't step inside the Go and expect beautiful hides or brushed metals (it's being sold in India, after all). The instrument cluster features a simple speedometer, while the five-speed manual and the center stack above it are rather barren. It's not without luxuries, though, as iPod-style connectivity is available through a Mobile Docking Station.
