1 Owner Rust Free Az 1983 Nissan 280zx 5 Spd Datsun Non Turbo Fairlady T Tops on 2040-cars
Tucson, Arizona, United States
1983 Datsun 280ZX T Tops Up for auction a nice clean unmolested 280ZX and if you are looking for a RUST FREE T TOP Z car, look no futher !! This is a 1 owner car, bought new here in Tucson Az back in 83 and has only had 1 owner its whole life. Its been well kept up by the original owner and in the last 10 yrs its been more of a 2nd car and mostly only used when they where in town which was only part of the yr. A binder full of invoices and receipts will come with the Z too showing almost all the work etc done over the yrs. Receipts from std oil changes to recent brake work and new injectors, back stuff done 10 yrs ago. The car shows aprox 116k which could be original The original owner kept pretty good records too that come with car. And its a nice original un restored Z. Which with a little interior work, would be a great car. Paint is original Az faded, but for a driver, its fine. The cars been a 2nd car for most of its life which explains the low miles which we think are original . Being an AZ CAR, this is a and always has been a rust free example what most people only wish they had for a 30 yr old Z. The chrome on both bumpers is in amazing shape. No pitting or rust - and they are straight on. Check out our feedback - feel comfortable buying from someone like us with GREAT large pics in our ads and GREAT FEEDBACK helping You be more comfortable to decide to bid on our cars. Ive been driving the car around now for the last week almost daily and it has plenty of power, starts and runs great every time and is a fun to drive esp with the T TOPS off. Its still a 30 yr old NON RESTORED original Z and that being said its a great weekend car or daily driver as is, and wouldnt take much to finish the restoration if you wanted. DRIVETRAIN: Original EFI L6 runs great with plenty of power in every gear. Non turbo model in my opinion like this car have less problems and plenty of power on hand. ALL stock - un molested just the way Nissan built it. This has been adult owned and driven its whole life. Some minor oil leaks you may expect for an older car but nothing leaving puddles or anything. Trans feels good and some recent work in the last few yrs has been: NEW CLUTCH KIT w/ machined flywheel / All 6 Injectors / and Front brakes too. I believe it to be the original, matching #s even motor. INTERIOR: Front seats AND Carpet where redone in the last few yrs and are NEW ! Some other areas are Showing their age from the Az sun over a 30 yr span but fine for a daily driver and would restore easily enough in a weekend. Interior shows nice as is, and wouldnt need alot to finish the restoration. But again, this is all cosmetic and you could drive the car like this for more yrs if you wanted to. Glass is good, but the inside glass needs a good cleaning. Window tint is old could use replacing soon. AC all connected and worked last summer, but quit blowing cold this yr. Heater core started to leak a few yrs ago and is bypassed for now. Most people in Az rarely use the heat anyway in our cars. Car may not come with the radio shown in pics. It will come with original radio shown in the pics but it wont be installed, seeing as most people want to put in their own radio / stereo preference. So there will be a hole where the stock radio goes when the car shows up. I just havent had time to take the aftermarket CD player yet. IF you want me to leave it in, email me if you win the car and we can work out something. SUSPENSION: Mostly all stock original down to the OE alloy rims Feels good, but Im sure it will need some bushings if you looked hard. But no weird noises, rear struts are NEW KYB. Tires decent, but nothing special. Some brake work recent. (We also are a tire dealer, so if you want a new set of tires installed on the car before taking delivery, let us know what you want and we can price it out for you, installed.) BODY: Really nice shape for its age. A few small dents and dings here and there, but some are so small they are hard to see in the pics. If you look close you can see a few dents on the pass side. 1 on the door and a crease on the RF fender. Hard to see in the pics. Ft valance is in decent shape. I do know the front clip was repainted in the last few yrs prob just from sun damage and age, but not sure exactly why. All the areas where the fenders meet the aprons look good and dont see any signs of previous damage or accidents. The rear license plate light is missing in the pics, but thats how we got it. I did buy a good used one for the car, just havent installed it yet. Ill do it this week and add a pic of it . As is you could drive it to local car events and the car would still draw a crowd. DO NOT BID UNLESS YOU ARE A REAL BUYER IF YOU HAVE LOW FEEDBACK AND ARE BIDDING PLEASE EMAIL US TO LET US KNOW YOU ARE LEGIT. NO EMAIL AND WE CAN CANCEL YOUR BID This car looks awesome in pics and even in person it looks great, but they always look nicer in pics. Not to take anything away from the car, but keep in mind its NOT a restored Z and does have some cosmetic flaws hard to see in the pics. EMAIL WITH ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE THE PICS BELOW SPEAK VOLUMES but Im sure I may of overlooked some stuff. This is our 3rd Z car in the last month we just sold here on Ebay, and I think our last one for a while. Cars this nice are getting so much harder to find.

Race Recap: 2014 24 Hours of Le Mans defines 'endurance'
Mon, 16 Jun 2014Commenting on the rush of events that rocked beginning and end of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, Paul Truswell of Radio Le Mans said "the race is about the ability to endure, not just the ability of drivers to do what they do for a long time." The entire race machine, all the way down to the pit boards and radios, has to survive the stress and abuse of the entire day. This was the race to prove those words.
There were two Toyotas, two Porsches and three Audis, five of the seven led the race at some point, six of the seven ran in the top three. Toyota will be hugely disappointed that it didn't win when its car and drivers were so, so strong, but they gave Audi the kind of scare we haven't seen since the best of Peugeot's days, and Toyota did a better job of it even in the loss. Porsche blew away everyone's expectations, falling 3.5 hours short of a fairy tale ending that would have made Disney cry.
But Le Mans doesn't really do fairy tales. Well, not that fairy tale. Audi's Twitter handle during the event was #welcomechallenges. As usual, Le Mans answered for the entire field.
Nissan's Dacia Duster-based Terrano revealed
Thu, 22 Aug 2013The new Nissan Terrano has appeared in production form after an apparent August 20 launch in India, but the small sport utility vehicle remains sadly aloof from the US market. We've had our eyes on the Terrano ever since we learned it would be produced as an upscale alternative to the Dacia Duster on which it's based, but currently Nissan has no plans to import it here. Blame safety and perhaps emissions laws - the Duster was never designed for our market.
Even with these less-than-high resolution images, it's clear that the beyond the obvious badges, Nissan's signature trapezoidal grille and a slightly altered rear end with new taillights are the biggest visual clues that this is the Terrano, but those with astute eyes will also notice a slightly redesigned hood and blacked-out door pillars instead of the Duster's body-colored items. Either way, it looks to be a handsome, low-cost little brute - the sort of simple and rugged SUV that's hard to come by in today's marketplace.
Fiat contemplating sub-brand to compete with Dacia, Datsun
Tue, 05 Feb 2013You can add Fiat to the admittedly short list of automakers considering a low-cost brand to rival Dacia. The inexpensive Eastern European brand from Renault-Nissan has performed on the balance sheet like a premium model line, and the money the alliance is taking off the table is encouraging other players to deal themselves in. Pretty soon Nissan's Datsun sub-brand will join the Dacia party, going on sale in Russia, Indonesia and India and will claim even more rubles, rupiahs and rupees for the parent company. Volkswagen recently said it will make a decision this year on a budget line for the Chinese market. With the euthanasia of Lancia and plans to move the Fiat brand upmarket, company CEO Sergio Marchionne wonders aloud to Automotive News Europe whether there could be room for a new budget brand underneath Fiat.
We're told that the initiative has been in the idea box for five years and even moved to the stage of name considerations, like Innocenti, but worries about profit kept it from realization. If such a range were to be developed, Marchionne says it couldn't be built in Italy and stay within budget, and the company is "analyzing its manufacturing capacity outside of Europe to see if a low-cost brand is viable."
