This 280z is dated January of 1975 which is the first month of the 280z production. It's my Daughters first car which is driven daily. I got it through a friend who got it through a trade. I have 2 Bill of Sales of previous ownerships. I also have a copy of the window sticker (matching serial numbers) to prove that this is a Southern States car that was bought new in Ga. I began restoration/preservation in July of 2012 which included new shocks all around,strut bars and rubber,sway bar kit front and back,front brake hoses, calipers with brake pads,brake manifold reservoir, lower control arm bushings, rack and pinion boots, ball joints,tie rod ends, car alignment, exhaust gaskets, exhaust from the manifold back with quiet muffler,electric fan with temperature control on the radiator,all heater hoses including the hard to get hoses under the dash, vacume hoses most have been replaced, complete tune up with air and fuel filters,upper and lower radiator hoses, battery, new dash cover the original has some cracks,weather stripping on doors and on two small windows,hood bumpers and under the hood wind/rain seals,custom factory cut & sewn carpet front and rear with padding, floor mats, drivers seat reupholstered, custom plastic welded speaker boxes, very little rust located in the usual areas mostly surface rust on floor boards and rear lift gate all fixed before paint job in March 2013. Rust preventer paint put on floor pans and under carriage also sprayed undercoating to cover white paint overspray. Painted under the hood and door jams, painted the tail light assemblies. Car has full size spare with original jack, chocks, and tools. I also include original owners manual and Datsun touch up paint. I probably forgot to mention a few things but all in all this is a great restoration car / street racer or everyday driver. I am selling only for my daughter to get a newer car for college. I will include a new Stainless Steel performance muffler with slanted tip, original radiator fan with shroud, original air intake tube, new key start switch, painted fiberglass tail fin, and two 3" orange stripes I thought might look good on the drivers side fender. I also have most of the reciept to prove that top grade parts were used. Thank you for looking and good luck.

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.
Nissan IDx Nismo and IDx Freeflow concepts are a bridge to the Datsun 510
Wed, 20 Nov 2013We're not sure if someone from The Adjustment Bureau stopped by Nissan's PR department to explain the IDx Nismo and IDx Freeflow concepts, but the company's odd press release can't diminish our love for these two show favorites. We had been told to look out for an unnamed Datsun 510 BRE homage, and once we saw the brothers IDx, we knew we'd found them. But the press release doesn't mention anything about the Datsun 510 Brock Racing Enterprises, nor does it mention one Mr. Peter Brock, the man who won two Trans-Am championships in the Seventies for the nascent Japanese budget brand.
Instead, it declares that the cars were the result of a co-creation product development process with "digital natives," said natives being the whippersnappers born after 1990. Nissan says it worked with the young'uns to create two different expressions of "their desire for a basic, authentic configuration for a car." If that's true, it appears that what the kiddies really want are... two different homages to the Datsun 510 BRE that Peter Brock used to win two championships in the seventies for the nascent Japanese brand.
The IDx Freeflow - the "ID" is for "identification," the "x" is "the variable representing the new values and dreams born through communication" - takes the casual approach, with a light khaki exterior hue, a minimalist interior decked out in denim and a console shifter that works a continuously variable transmission. The IDx Nismo is out for blood, from its crimson interior to its five-point harness to its bolt-on flares and sidepipes. We aren't told what the digital natives requested for powerplants, but that's alright; if this is what "co-creation" looks like, we're not entirely against it except where that "CVT" is involved.
Datsun previews new budget sedan for Russia [w/video]
Thu, 13 Mar 2014Nobody does cars on the cheap quite like the Renault-Nissan Alliance. The former part of the equation already has its Dacia brand of cost-effective, no-frills vehicles that have become a favorite of Top Gear co-host James May, and last summer, the latter revived its Datsun nameplate for a budget brand of its own.
The reborn Datsun launched in India this past July with its Go hatchback, returned in September with the Go+ minivan and revealed the Redi-Go concept just last month. And now it's given us our first look at an upcoming budget sedan developed specifically for the Russian market.
The as-yet unnamed vehicle (which we'll bet will incorporate the word "go" into its nameplate somehow) is set to debut on April 4, where it will launch the Datsun brand in Russia. Few details are available at this point, but the low-cost sedan was designed in Japan to offer Russian drivers "an engaging driving experience, peace of mind ownership and accessibility at the right and transparent price, with a competitive Total Cost of Ownership."
