Well it is with much regret that I'm looking at selling my car due to job-related issues. Here's the skinny:

Car was completely rebuilt. Started in '93, finished in June of 2002. Every nut, bolt and speck of paint removed. Battery tray, passenger floor, right-side firewall, and right-side hatch deck replaced. Car was placed on a frame machine and straightened. Paint is an acrylic-urethane in stock Nissan Red. Original #'s engine rebuilt and color matched to car. Interior has new seat apholstery and new carpet. New weatherstripping throughout. Also has 280ZX 6-spoke rims with semi-polished centers (not a mirror finish).

Car was Featured Z of the Month in May, 2004. http://www.classiczcars.com/forums/showthread.php?t=12935

Car has been on the track a few times in Autocross and PCA High-speed Events. Suspension is stock strut inserts (replaced with new) on MotorSport Auto springs (blue). Front control arm camber bushings installed. Urethane sway arm bushings front & rear. I have a 1" front sway bar that is not installed, but will go with the car. Please keep in mind, this is not a trailer queen, car-show only car (although she has a few 2nd place finishes in Nissan Street Modified classes). This car has been raced. There are chips in the paint. Exterior and interior were left to look stock.

Car has also been injected with structural foam form Fomo Products. www.fomo.com

This was professionally done by a factory rep. to increase sound deadening and structural rigidity. Lower rockers, rear quarters, and roof section above the qtr windows. Car sounds like it has the interior installed, even though it does not. Very quiet. As for the structural aspect, at my last autoX, it felt like a completely different car. Very noticeable.

Price is negotiable starting at $4500. I hate to do this. But sometimes, you just have to let go...

Also, I have a '76 L28 and a T5 transmission (280ZX) for sale. L28 runs but was going to be rebuilt. I have a new gasket set along with brand new flat-top pistons. L28 and T5 (package deal), $750 obo.

Beautiful car, great price, was tempted to make an offer as I am back in the market and it was just what I was looking for. Made some recent eBay sales and almost had your asking price -- but shipping to Wash. state would be a drawback. Glad you were able to work things out -- don't know what I'd do if I lost my job, I've been 17 years with the same company. Owners keep changing but I never do. Good luck and thanks for thinking of us.

great news indeed. and yes, you were asking way too little imo.
