Corning, California, United States
1975 Datsun 280Z Hatchback coupe with an engine that has only 300 miles after a Complete rebuild. The block & head were boiled out, resurfaced & bored, then assembled with all new parts including oil pump, water pump, fuel pump, distributor, hoses, clutch assy. plugs, wires & battery. The front suspension joints & rubber bushings are new & the front end was completely realigned. All brake & clutch main & slave cylinders as well as the exhaust system are new. The body is in very good condition, primed & near ready for finish paint. The inside head liner is in good condition, the lights, gages, wipers work fine. The transmission & rear end have been checked out & are in very good condition. It will need a new radio antenna & the original rear cargo mat needs replacing. the passengers seat is in good condition but the drivers seat needs to be recovered. the air conditioner will have to be reinstalled and charged but every thing is there to be connected to. This is a very good running car that can be driven anywhere you desire without any trouble for a long time to come. I have been working on it for myself but health problems have put a stop to finishing the cosmetics so somebody is going to acquire a very nice car at a very reasonable price. I will be very happy to answer any questions, just give me a call. 530-824-8875

Malaise Era All-Stars
Fri, 17 May 2013A few weeks ago, we bid a fond happy 40th anniversary to the automotive dark ages of 1973-84 that have come to be known as "The Malaise Era" - the performance ice-age when 160 horsepower was a lot and a 0-60 time of under 10 seconds was remarkable. Like music in the 1980s, everything in automobiledom didn't suck, however. There were a few bright spots. Here are five of our favorites:

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.
Datsun's lackluster initial sales fall below Tata Nano
Wed, 15 Oct 2014When Tata introduced the Nano back in 2008, everyone was amazed at how cheap it was. They called it a game changer, but no game was changed. In fact, it took Tata five years to sell the 250,000 units it had the capacity to build in a single year. As it turns out, even buyers in what economists call "developing markets" like India aren't necessarily interested in buying an ultra-cheap automobile. And now it appears that Nissan may be falling into the same trap.
A little over a year ago, Nissan revived its old moniker Datsun to serve as a budget brand - similar to what ally Renault did with Dacia. Its lineup (consisting of models like the Go hatchback, Go+ minivan, On-Do sedan and Mi-Do hatch) is largely based on old architecture, packaged with little more than basic equipment and sold at rock-bottom prices. But Bloomberg reports that, even in the brand's core markets like India and Indonesia, the new Datsuns haven't been selling.
According to local industry figures, Datsun has sold fewer than 10,000 units of its $5,100 Go hatchbacks in India since its introduction back in March. Maruti Suzuki, by comparison, sells twice that many of its similarly priced Alto hatchbacks every month. In fact, after peaking in April, Datsun only sold 607 units in India this past July, dipping 77 percent to drop below even the number of Nanos which Tata sold that month.
