Nissan’s epic line-up of Z-cars started way back in 1969 with the S30 series. With its straight-six engine and four-wheel independent suspension, it was truly a technological tour-de-force for the time, unlike competitors in the small sports car segment. For many overseas markets, including the United States, the car was sold under the Datsun brand. Now, the first-generation Z cars are firmly cemented in classic car culture, representing Japan’s finest with pride. If you’d like to own one of these iconic machines, here’s a 1970 Datsun 240Z up for sale right now with us.
This 1970 Datsun 240Z wears a glorious Monte Carlo Red paint coat, highlighting its beautiful coupe design. Overall, this car looks in fantastic shape, right down to the chrome beadings along the windows, and the badging on the car’s rear liftback. Meanwhile, it’s also received an aftermarket set of 14-inch slotted mag wheels. If you were to remove a front wheel, you’d notice the 240z badging on the calipers of the brakes as well. The interior of this 1970 Datsun 240Z comes to you in a predominantly black theme. You’ll find two leather-upholstered seats, a green-topped gear shift knob, and a wood-rimmed sporty steering wheel with the Datsun logo on the center cap. There’s no radio, but you can install a unit of your choice once you get this car into your hands. We’re also informed that the car comes with all AC lines, so installing air conditioning isn’t a hard job in case you need it. After all, the world is getting warmer, and air conditioning makes a classic car noticeably more pleasant. This is particularly important if you plan to take this car on long trips, as its surprisingly spacious boot makes it a useful grand tourer.
Packing a 2.4-liter in-line six with twin carburetors, this 1970 Datsun 240Z also enjoys 6 to 1 headers and a Monza exhaust for extra grunt and growl. Power goes to the rear wheels through a 4-speed manual transmission for that quintessential classic sports car feel. The car also comes with front disc brakes and rear drum brakes, which are more than up to the task of reigning in that soulful six.

An iconic piece of Japanese sports car history, Nissan’s series of Z cars have been around since the late '60s. Badged as Datsuns in the United States, the Z cars were highly desirable when brand-new, as they marked a sort of affordable entry into the sports car segment for eager enthusiasts. As time passed by, examples such as this first-generation 1971 Datsun 240Z Coupe have only appreciated in desirability, and value. So why not grab yourself a slice of Japanese automotive nirvana and buy this fully restored car? It’s got less than 1,500 miles on its rebuilt motor, and a slew of new parts.

What do you get when you imbue an Eighties car with Twenties (no not Twenty Twenties, but Nineteen Twenties) styling? That’s precisely what Excalibur aimed to do. This Milwaukee-based outfit was the work of Clifford Brooks Stevens, who initially designed the cars for Studebaker. Stevens subsequently formed a company to create them by himself. Sadly, the project wasn’t as successful as all involved would have expected, and after several failures, Excalibur folded in 1990. Of course, that hasn’t stopped others from creating replicas, such as this 1989 Excalibur Series V Replica. Built on a 1989 Mercury Grand Marquis GS chassis, this 17,688-mile automobile awaits its new owner in Williston, Vermont. It is often said that imitation is the best form of flattery, so the fact that someone built a replica of the Excalibur means that the car is worth checking out. If you’re the kind of person who lusts after the quirky and isn’t afraid to push the boundaries of what many consider a ‘classic’ or ‘modern classic’, why not buy this car and become its custodian?
The Chevy Nova, or Chevy II as it was also known, was the Bowtie’s contender in the compact car space between 1962 and 1979. It was quite a departure from Chevy’s other offerings that included full-size and midsize cars, plus sports, muscle and pony cars. Nevertheless, the Nova was a best-seller throughout much of the Sixties, since it represented affordable motoring for the masses who didn’t want a land yacht of epic proportions and eye-watering price. Now, the Nova is a great classic car, as well as a fine restomod platform. This particular 1966 Chevrolet Nova SS Restomod is a great example of the latter category, as it’s undergone a full restoration and has just 400 miles on its stonking new motor.
Being a manufacturer and making a statement in the ʼ80s was a tough task, as the automotive world was on full blast with cars making the move to more tech and a change in design to suit a massive shift in customer tastes and preferences. Mercedes-Benz in the 80s was peak German automotive and the secret to its success? Staying true to who they are and giving the world true luxury and superior engineering over marketing gimmicks. Present today is this 1988 Mercedes-Benz 420SEL, this German classic is a love letter to luxury cruising in style and has just a reported 140,316 miles on its clock.
