This 280z is a January of 1975 issue which is the very first month of the 280z production models. It's been a Southern car since 1975. Bought new in Ga. A copy of the window sticker proves that it was bought new in Ga. This is my Daughters first car and is driven daily. I purchased the car in July of 2012 from a friend who traded a trailer for it and knew I would like it. Im thinking I may be the 3rd or 4th owner. I need to sell so my daughter can have a newer vehicle to go to college. The car is mostly original with ordinary maintenance items replaced. The interior is nice with a reupholstered drivers seat, dash cover, new factory cut and sewn carpet throughout. I started restoring/preserving the car and replaced shocks all around,shock boots,ball joints,tie rod ends,steering boots,brake calipers and brakes,front brake hoses,strut bushings, lower control arm bushings,rear brakes and slave cylinders,sway bar bushing kit front & rear,acid washed and rod cleaned the radiator,new heater hoses on the heater core, all water hoses under the hood are new, new rubber fuel injection lines,fuel filter. I put on an Electric fan instead of those noisy factory fans with a thermostat switch, new exhaust from the manifold back ,nice factory cut new carpet with padding and floor mats, new CD stereo with 6x9 Kenwood speakers in custom plastic welded boxes ,new paint 3/2013,very little rust repair before painting mostly surface rust on floor boards and tailgate area. Tires are about 70% tread and are 70/195r14. Extra parts go with car such as original air intake plastic duct, original radiator fan and shroud, new performance Stainless Steel muffler and tip, new key ignition switch, 3"orange stripes I was going to put on the drivers side fender that match the bottom stripes, also included is a painted fiberglass tail fin. I have most of the receipts to show that most parts were purchased were Nissan original parts. The drivers side roof drip rail chrome is slightly damaged due to someone trying to pry open door at some point.Overall its a real great smooth driving 38 year old car. Great start to a restoration or street racer. As mentioned the air blows cool not cold and the air vents could use some fixing to get air blowing more efficient. The Mileage cannot be 100% confirmed accurate. The engine and transmission each have a very small drip just enough to see on clean garage floor. DMV in AL tell me that cars 1978 and older need no Title so all I have is a Bill of Sale. A Title can be created at the buyers expense if you so desire. This Car will be sold AS IS. Buyer handles shipping arrangments if any, fly in drive away if you want. Thanks for looking.

Datsun expands low-cost revival with new Mi-Do in Moscow [w/video]
Fri, 29 Aug 2014Those 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.

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."
