I like how I go 6+months without watching a video on this channel. And when I come back I can count on Randy saying two things....1 "dead as a doornail" and 2 "does the important window work" haha
The "heat shield" on that Datsun is actually the skid plate that goes under the engine. (Edit) And 82-83s had the "turbo" hood, regardless of turbo status. That electric "turbo" is a cooling fan for the fuel injector rail. Cars were prone to vapor lock.
I had 2 datsuns. They were the 510 and the b10. Absolute awsome cars!! The rear passenger windows were octagon shaped, they both were super fuel economic,with the ten gallon fuel tanks.
I just want to say thank you to Jessica. I know she doesn't like to be on camera, I can certainly understand that, but I appreciate her contribution to your channel and my entertainment. Thank you so much, Jessica!
Me 10 years ago would have gone bananas for that 280zx, now, I don't particularly care for them because even back then it was hard to find parts for them even used on ebay. Man that car brought me memories, mainly memories of spending ungodly amounts of time looking for parts.
Get that Q45. I've always loved those tommy gun headlights. I think that was probably the first car to use LED headlights. That car was definitely ahead of its time. That one looks like a nice one, too.
I had a Nissan silvia 1.8 Turbo once that Z2800 brought back some memories. She used to have a rear wheel drive. I had a lot of girls on the backseat of my Nissan enjoying that axel 🤪 You don't see those cars anymore i bet this is going to be a classic. Parts are hard to get but it sure is a waste, hopefully someone is going to buy it and brings it back to life.
I was shocked to see a V8 under the hood of the Infiniti, I don't really keep up with Infiniti well I know about G35 and I love the exhaust note they produce
Starting fluid is a must to have with u at the auctions Mr.Randall You could start a lot more cars than just with that jumper pack.. Keep up the great work!
Those X3 can be good cars. On older guy had his X3 till last year when he passed away and his son sold it for an 5 series. I’m pretty sure he was the cars first owner and took good care of it. He pretty much drove it every day till he couldn’t so then his son used it. Shame that cars like these cannot be sold by dealers to private buyers due to them having to give a mandatory warranty on a 15 year old BMW. That’s why it’s so hard to get cheap cars where I live. German laws suck when it comes to that.
Hey Randy, the Infinity Q45 looks good for $1200. Sort out the power steering issue give it a wash and get the headlights cleaned/ buffed! Then back to copart.
the 4x4 light could be on because of the different tires on the x3 the sensors are seeing a different rate of rotation on each wheel that why it recommended to replace all four tires when putting new tires on
The old Datsun king meaning puttins fab shop could probably have that thing running within 20 minutes that guy is awesome just wish he would put more videos up
The Infiniti Q 45 Infiniti is really amazing my wife’s grandmother passed in 2017 and we inherited it . The body style was a 2005 upgraded facelift and rear end The horsepower will surprise you it’s about 340 horses powered by the V-8 reliable Nissan engine NASCAR was using back in the day the only thing that we had problems with was the struts and the car only had 42,000 miles we gave it to my brother around 90,000 miles and he still drives it to this day there were only 1200 produced in 2005 that makes it very rare very comfortable too used to take it from Florida to New York all the time highway cruiser for sure Great pick up on the highway if you had a situation where you had to break hard the seatbelt has like a motor It will pull you back into the seat some have an option that has intelligent cruise control with radar braking crazy how it had that at the time .It was my wife’s first car she ever had great memories from high school .
Just finished checking the Datsun, its at 275 lol. I would've thrown a bid but the shipping and other cost of shipping it to he Philippines would be more than its worth.
That 280 xx brought back some memories. My parents owned an 83 2+2 auto. It was such a cool car. Everyone raved about it then and still talk about it today. It would have the female voice come on to tell you your doors were open or fuel was low. My brother ended up driving it w/o engine oil and began to overheat. It didn't do any damage and ran for many more years. Unfortunately, they were prone to rusting and ours began to by the early 90s. I think your example is too far gone. It would need a ground up restoration and I'm sure would cost a fortune. I'm not sure how much mint ones are worth as they are rare but I still don't think it would be worth it. The Infiniti looks promising though.
I think the Datsun 280 ZX would be worth fixing up. If you look into it I think you might find that in good condition they are going for a good price. You might even be able to flip it as a project car.
BUY that 280Zx 2+2 NOW! In running, decent condition, it's worth $8K up to $20K or more for one in pristine condition so there's lots of room here for investment in the body, paint, engine, and interior. And, it will provide us with a lot of interesting vlogs. Done right, this could make you a lot of cash. 👍✌ P.S. My dad bought new in 1972, a Datsun 240Z, and came waltzing home in it, and I happened to be outside on the driveway to see him pull up. I was shocked to say the least as this was something my dad, so I thought, would never buy as a family man with 3 boys. That night my mom, my dad, and myself scrunched up, laying down in the back, went to Vegas 300 miles away. When not sitting up between the two front seats, I was laying down in the back looking through the hatch at the stars in the pitch black desert. My dad would pick me up from school, and I was feeling that my dad is so cool moment. A lot of memories in that car, SO BUY IT RANDY! 😁😁😀😀🙂🙂😁😁
Love the BMW X3 I have the same one abs and brake light on transfercase lil gear probably broke common issue 4x4 light on gotta drive it then it'll go away good m54 engine
I really like that Infiniti there, it was definitely ahead of its time for when it came out. I hope you win it, it needs your attention especially with that power steering pump. That agree thing on the navigation seems like you may have to clean up that enter button it may be not making proper contact. And those headlights please take it to Walmart lol!!
Sadly, the ZX is a parts car. Its only value mainly is the 5 speed transmission & the P79 cylinder head. The motor is a L28. same as the 280z from 75 on. As mentioned, the electric fan is a injector cooling fan, runs 15 min after the car is shut off to address heat soak issues. All ZX's from 82 on all got the turbo hood. Looks like a $300 parts car to me....
I had an '82 Datsun (by Nissan) 280zx w/ t-tops. I would love a 2+2. Incorrect regarding the hood meaning turbo. Minecand all 280zx's turbo or not hat that hood vent set-up. Long Motor Company (lmc truck parts/Victoria British) in Lenexa, KS used to have a Datsun/Nissan Z car line. There is only 1 or 2 companies still around that deal with Z car parts.
Why did Copart go to "dealer only" bidding? Or do they have non-dealer auction days also? It seems when they started it was open to all, then you had to buy a membership, then beyond.
Randy, regarding BMW's, what didn't you like about that almost new black BMW 3 series you rented? I really like the looks of them, did they run poorly or were they too small for a 3 series?
That Infinity is a Nissan in Japan it's a really good car and it's a shame that they didn't came to Europe but good Bulletproof car V8 can't go wrong with that magnificent machine that they use as a VIP Cars if that car was here i would buy it right away
I like how I go 6+months without watching a video on this channel. And when I come back I can count on Randy saying two things....1 "dead as a doornail" and 2 "does the important window work" haha
The important window 😂
The "heat shield" on that Datsun is actually the skid plate that goes under the engine. (Edit) And 82-83s had the "turbo" hood, regardless of turbo status. That electric "turbo" is a cooling fan for the fuel injector rail. Cars were prone to vapor lock.
Love the X3 and the Q45, a little love , care and attention and both cars will be great Randy, keep up the great work
My sister had a Datsun B210, lime green lol. That thing ran forever, never broke down.
That x3 is worth the money. Those engines are unbreakable! I've been waiting for months to see some Bimmers on this channel!
I had 2 datsuns. They were the 510 and the b10. Absolute awsome cars!! The rear passenger windows were octagon shaped, they both were super fuel economic,with the ten gallon fuel tanks.
I just want to say thank you to Jessica. I know she doesn't like to be on camera, I can certainly understand that, but I appreciate her contribution to your channel and my entertainment. Thank you so much, Jessica!
Q 45 What a nice car for $1200.00 another AAR Diamond in the rough.
Randy goes "That's alot of lights" as he is checking the BMW. Me: "Hey it's a BMW"!
On the 280zx, that's an injector fan to help with fuel vapor lock. Not a lol electric turbo.
That infinity looks so cool. It has been about 10 years since I last saw one.
Me 10 years ago would have gone bananas for that 280zx, now, I don't particularly care for them because even back then it was hard to find parts for them even used on ebay. Man that car brought me memories, mainly memories of spending ungodly amounts of time looking for parts.
the Q45 is a dam fast car and great
For the x3, you will need to replace the gears in the transfer case encoder motor. It is not too hard.
On the X3, change the abs sensor, change the oil pan sensor,, reset the codes, the lights will go out. Cheap,easy fix
Love the Datsun
Good video Randy good variety of vehicles especially the BMW & Part of my favorite Gary Allan song Watching Airplanes
ya man those older q45's are way ahead of their time technologically speaking and are awesome cars.
Get that Q45. I've always loved those tommy gun headlights. I think that was probably the first car to use LED headlights. That car was definitely ahead of its time. That one looks like a nice one, too.
Crank sounds good, compression sounds good. I think that oil pressure gauge isn’t working. Beautiful z
I had a Nissan silvia 1.8 Turbo once that Z2800 brought back some memories.
She used to have a rear wheel drive. I had a lot of girls on the backseat of my Nissan enjoying that axel 🤪

You could start a lot more cars than just with that jumper pack..
Keep up the great work!
idc, i would drive that datsun 280 just as it is, thats how much i love them cars
Would love to see you buy 280zx

We don't mean to brag..we don't mean to boast...but we like hot butter on our breakfast toast...
The "Electric Turbo " Is a cooling fan for the inlet maifold to make hot starts easier ...... It's worth a ton of money in parts alone .....
I like your video and I hope you and your family have a merry Christmas Randy .
Those Datsuns were hot cars back when I was in H.S. Sadly they've all been pretty much gone around here for at least 20 years.
Believe it or not, those Datsun’s are Gold! No runners but all complete will fetch over 5k within 72 hrs of posting on being a trailer
That 280zx, in my opinion, is good for parts only. And I agree..... I wouldn't pay $1500 for it. Maybe $200 on a good day
the 4x4 light could be on because of the different tires on the x3 the sensors are seeing a different rate of rotation on each wheel that why it recommended to replace all four tires when putting new tires on
The old Datsun king meaning puttins fab shop could probably have that thing running within 20 minutes that guy is awesome just wish he would put more videos up
Cool old Datsun. 😎👍🇨🇦
You need but the MB from this morning for Jessica, she deserves it!
God Bless you Randy . I enjoy your videos 👍
That infinity looks like a daewoo lol
That datsun could be a great project
Hello Randy. The Datson 280 X is a nice car. The other 2 cars are awesome.
The Infiniti Q 45 Infiniti is really amazing my wife’s grandmother passed in 2017 and we inherited it .

This poor little Datsun 😥 but i do remember these. Bmw i don’t know especially with the 4 by 4 light! Like the infinity
Hey Randy do you think you can look at some more Subarus?
These Datsun are getting more rare these days, it looks ruff, but it has to be saved from someone and restored
Thats good condition for one of them Datsuns, dashboard cracking is pretty normal as well as rust
I think the Datsun 280 ZX would be worth fixing up. If you look into it I think you might find that in good condition they are going for a good price. You might even be able to flip it as a project car.
The engine in the X3 is the M54 Randy, they'll survive the car! :)
I know you done had a lot of comments about the Z28 but I would love to buy one
BUY that 280Zx 2+2 NOW!

When h were checking the infinity i saw the mercedes ml in front can u put it in a vid?
Love the BMW X3 I have the same one abs and brake light on transfercase lil gear probably broke common issue 4x4 light on gotta drive it then it'll go away good m54 engine
datsun is collectable

Buy that 280zx if you do a cam swap it sounds amazing!

That Infiniti QX 80 uses the same air conditioning the screen as the Nissan Almera does it's a little tricky to use my brother had one
Autobot blue streak you gotta save him Randy!!!
Randy. Seen any X1s out there?
Hell yeah brother
Nice Datsun hard to find could be fuel pump going out
The hood prop is in front of the radiator support.
I wouldn't take that Datsun for free!
Shoot it’s been years since I herd the song that came on in the x3
Love the BMW and the infinity
Infinity, dream car for Europe /I am from Europe/. Cheap, V8, full stuff, great.
On that Datsun even scarier than that electric turbo is that orange oil filter underneath it!
I think this is become The BMW channel now.
That chime is the same in my 93 Pathfinder
All 82-83's have the same hood.
If it's a turbo, look on the lower right front air damn and there will be a vent for the oil cooler.
That Datsun.
Can you get back to doing some wrenching on ones that you pick up? It’s been a lot of wash and send back to auction….🤷🏻♂️
Nobody forces you to watch 🤦♂️
😆
Green covers on the valve stems... I wonder if those tires are still filled with Nitrogen only.
Hey what's that app called where you can bet on vehicles because I want to bet on that off-roader jeep vehicle thing you had only one video
Any E30 BMWs? 😊🤘🏽
That is not a electric turbo. That is a fan system for the injectors for after running it cools the injectors to prevent vapor lock
Got cancer in the quarters 😂 Randy u are hilarious
I had a 280zx in 1990!!
This video is very fascinating Randy!!
Your luck on the BMWs just began Randy
Evening Randy Lee Shear Of Auto Auction Rebuilds
Randy, that genesis coupe in front of the bmw u were reviewing, was it worth looking at ?
If you can diagnose the faults on the X3, it could be a car for Jessica.
That z car would take more money than it would ever be worth to fix.
Why did Copart go to "dealer only" bidding? Or do they have non-dealer auction days also? It seems when they started it was open to all, then you had to buy a membership, then beyond.
I had one of them new off the lot and I tell you randy she was bad to the bone she was very fast
On the BMW, X3 you may need to replace the transfer case
Why 209000 KLM is impressive , my car has 734000 KLM is a Mercedes c220 CDI w203 and still running great 👌👌
Hey Randy hope you're all doing well
X3 was nice
The Datsun looks like a JDM. Poor girl is a rare one and most likely a Fairlady 280ZX. It is a shame the rust is so extensive.
More hall damage cars video please THNANKYOU 🙏
Randy, regarding BMW's, what didn't you like about that almost new black BMW 3 series you rented? I really like the looks of them, did they run poorly or were they too small for a 3 series?
On that BMW the trip odometer was at 000.0. That is odd. It should have some kind of miles on it.
That Infinity is a Nissan in Japan it's a really good car and it's a shame that they didn't came to Europe but good Bulletproof car V8 can't go wrong with that magnificent machine that they use as a VIP Cars if that car was here i would buy it right away
6:55 An extra cooling fan 👍
That Infiniti was the car to ever have a backup camera, I think.
I hade a 1979 i put a 350 .30 over bore with double hump heads and a 292 comp cam and a 700r4 transmission that little car hauled ass
