1980 Datsun / Nissan 280zx - 10th Anniversary Edition 55k Original Miles on 2040-cars
Saint Johns, Florida, United States
|
This is a authentic original 1980 Datsun 10th Anniversary Edition. I am the third owner. The car is located in Jacksonville FLA.
General Condition: The vehicle is a Nissan with 55k on the clock. The body and frame are rust free with no signs of any accident damage. This is a numbers matching original car. The engine, transmission and differential are all solid. A compression check on the engine shows all cylinders have very good compression. Car is original except for a cold air intake and the exhaust system was replaced from the catalytic converter back. Interior is in good shape with expected wear and aging. All gauges and the AC work. The weather stripping is in good condition. Wheels are the original alloy wheels in good shape. The suspension has been redone with Tokico blue HP shocks and struts and the front coil springs have been replaced. All the glass on the car is good with no cracks or dings. I have the original air box. There are no cracks in the dash. The carpets are in good shape. It appears that the vehicle was mostly garaged kept and shows it. Problem Areas: The paint on the car shows expected aging with minor nicks and dings. The black paint on the bright work is pealing off in places. The passenger door had some surface rust on a paint seam and was treated with POR 15. It is a older average paint job showing its age. The drivers seat is showing expected wear on the bolsters and could use a few new panels. As with all Zcars the vinyl is peeling off some of the panels in the rear of the car. The radio works but the cassette deck needs new drive belts. The cruise control does not seem to work. Also the antenna does not fully retract. The electronic "warning system" is not working properly and I have a replacement. Documentation: I have the original owners manual, service manual and the literature from Nissan regarding the 10th Anniversary club. Service history on the car is fairly complete except for routine maintenance. Spare Parts: I have the following parts for the car. I set of brake rotors for the front. A new set of brake lines. A set of belts (fan belts). A replacement warning system module. Complete set of emblems and decals for the exterior of the car. A spare ECU (computer). Also I have a set of four Toyo Proxies 215/60/14 tires that are negotiable. Summary: This is a nice solid honest car that has not been crashed, rusted out or heavily modified. Please look at the images of the vehicle in regards to its condition. This vehicle is for sale outside of eBay and the auction may be ended. If you have a poor rating or a zero history please contact me when bidding or your bid may be remove. There is no warranty for this vehicle. Shipping will be at buyers expense and I will do what I can to help in that area. The car is very drivable but please keep in mind that this is a 35 year old car that has been driven only about a thousand miles a year. If you have any questions please ask prior to bidding. |

Spitballs flying between Nissan and Fiat
Thu, 06 Dec 2012At the 2012 LA Auto Show, Fiat brand chief and recently crowned marketing genius, Olivier François, attempted to distance the Fiat 500e from other electric vehicles, asking rhetorically, "Isn't ugliness the worst kind of pollution?" Nissan has apparently taken issue with these comments, feeling slighted for what it considers digs at the Leaf's styling. In a recent interview with Automotive News, Nissan's marketing chief Simon Sproule shot back, "Let's face it, Fiat has not shied away from controversial styling themselves," he continued, "many would describe many of their products as visual pollution." Ouch.
Sproule says that while the 500e is a "me-too" product, made only to appease US emissions regulations, the Leaf is a serious effort at producing an EV. The Nissan marketing boss points out that the Japanese automaker has invested billions in EV development and production facilities, while Fiat will lose $10,000 on every 500e sold.
However sales of the Leaf in the US are down five percent. Nissan sold just 8,330 Leaf's so far this year, but Sproule contends that it has less to do with styling, and more with the charging infrastructure. Sproule also thinks that Nissan hit a balance between styling and practicality with the Leaf: "It's still very recognizable as a five-seat hatchback, fully functioning, absolutely competitive with the packaging of the Golf of any other mainstream vehicle." For a segment where efficiency is king, isn't that what matters most?
Nissan New Micra being considered for Canadian market
Tue, 01 Oct 2013A new story from AutoGuide is triggering new speculation that Nissan may be about to bring its New Micra to North America. According to a dealer-based source, Nissan is showing off the overseas hatchback at Canadian dealer meetings along with the redesigned 2014 Rogue. The report indicates that the car is expected to go on sale sometime mid next year. Autoblog has learned that, while the New Micra is indeed under study for the Canadian market, it is not being considered for US sales. Our well-placed source tells us that bringing the New Micra to US dealers "just wouldn't make sense."
Bringing the New Micra to US dealers "just wouldn't make sense."
Reading between the lines a bit, that's because Nissan already has a robust small car lineup spearheaded by the Versa sedan and new Versa Note hatchback, along with the compact Sentra. And while both Versa models are generously sized for the subcompact classes they compete in, their low entry price (the sedan starts under $12k) means that pricing the smaller Micra underneath it would be difficult. Given its historically significantly higher fuel prices (not to mention higher vehicle prices and a penchant for small cars), Canada seems like a much more hospitable market for the Micra.
Renault taking Alpine endurance racing, enters 24 Hours of Le Mans
Sun, 10 Mar 2013Renault isn't letting up with the return of its Alpine brand. After announcing a partnership with Caterham to bring a new Alpine to market by 2015 (now expected by 2016), the French firm has announced it is taking Alpine racing again in the European Le Mans Series this year - and that includes The 24 Hours of Le Mans.
It has been 35 years since Alpine last competed in Le Mans, when it won the race outright and dropped the mic as it left the pits, never to return. Before that, in the 11 years it campaigned in the most famous endurance race on the planet from 1963 to 1978, it took seven class wins.
Caterham won't be involved with the race team, however; that will be an effort spearheaded by the Signatech-Nissan team that has been running GT Academy winners in LMS racing. Alpine is preparing an LMP2 chassis that will get a 500-horsepower Nissan engine for this year's championship, with the first two named drivers being Nelson Panciatici (above right) and Pierre Ragues (above left). The third driver for Le Mans will be announced later this month when the racer is launched at the Le Castellet race track in southern France.
