Description

In the next several weeks, we will be auctioning a number of scarce project cars that have been barn stored by a local collector / enthusiast for years. There are a number of cars that are fairly unique and rare, and are all in various stages of repair. Note that many of these are in need of a complete major restoration, and none are able to drive away. They do have clear titles and would be great projects for the right individual.

You are looking at an original 1976 Datsun 280Z Sport Coupe. Please scroll down and enjoy the 200+ photos. If you cannot view all the photos, please click here.

It was our consignor's daily driver for many years before it developed a rod knock a few years ago: fair body, poor interior, bad floor pans, 4 speed, was very quick & handled like a go-cart , missing the radiator (criminal tenant a few years ago who stole a number of batteries & radiators). This car would make a good track or race car. It needs a complete major restoration.

Condition Report

Original car stored for year in barn. This car is in need of a restoration or recondition and has not been turned over or ran in years. Title and keys included, probably not for the weekend restorer but better than many of the other cars. Tires have some dry rot. Please see photos and description for complete details on vehicle condition.

Additional Details:

We cannot warranty any parts and as with any vintage vehicle, they are always a project in some way. Collector cars are many times temperamental and reliability can be a factor on some. We also did not test any accessory or feature.

To be clear, this vehicle is a project car or for parts. It does not run and the condition of any component is unknown. The automobile needs to be transferred on a trailer to the destination. The title is free and clear, and we are also requiring a bill of sale be signed by the new owner stating this car is being purchased as-is as a project car.

Please call our store at (414) 727-0600 for additional information on this vehicle. Best of all, we are selling this beauty with NO RESERVE, but do reserve the right to end the auction early as it is for sale locally. Good luck in the auction.

We assume no responsibility for damages incurred after the vehicle leaves our possession. We are not affiliated with any carrier. Any claims or other communication regarding shipment of vehicles will be between you and the shipper, not with the seller.

Malaise Era All-Stars

Fri, 17 May 2013

A 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 Redi-Go is reborn brand's first concept car [w/video]

Wed, 05 Feb 2014

Nissan's plan for its reborn Datsun sub-brand just got a shot in the arm, as the emerging-market manufacturer has unveiled its first concept car since its resurrection back in 2012. Called the Redi-Go Concept, it looks like a high-riding version of Datsun's recently launched Go hatchback that's been fitted with a few concept car cues (not a bad thing).
The Redi-Go packs LED taillights, Datsun's "D-cut grille" and LED running lights into its Go-inspired body. Funky two-tone 15-inch wheels add a bit of cheek to the overall design, and in our minds look quite good, despite being so small. The ruggedized front and rear bumpers, as well as the sill and wheel arch surrounds add to the Redi-Go's rough-and-tumble aesthetic. We like that Datsun has kept the overall package short, giving the Redi-Go a 92.5-inch wheelbase, rather than creating a lifted version of the upcoming Go+. There are no specific mentions of the Redi-Go's mechanicals, although we'd wager that a production model might share the 1.2-liter engine and five-speed manual found in the standard Go.
While it might be easy to dismiss a concept like the Redi-Go in America, there's no denying its importance to the Indian market, which is decidedly more limited when it comes to available bodystyles. "If we were to make a car like Datsun Redi-Go Concept it would be a segment creator in India, an aspirational car that at the same time is attainable, a car that would be within reach of the first time buyer. This concept shows how serious we are about reinvigorating the market by catering for the needs of a growing class of Indians who have the chance to own a family car that will enable them to enjoy a new sense of independence," said Vincent Cobee, the global head of Datsun.

Roadkill pits every project car against each other

Sat, 22 Feb 2014

The 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.
