Proud / Excited Z car owner

Horray - dream achieved! I got a Z-car!!

'77 280z w/ 80k miles, tucked away under a tree, old-lady driven - i've been in it for a whole 70 miles and every mile has been a blast.

Hope to be a contributing member here at Classic Zcar Club!

Can't wait till MSA's Back to the Street event!

Keeping a blog on its restoration: www.dailydatsun.com

See you around!

Congratulations on your purchase. It looks like a solid car, and the rust doesn't look too bad.

Nice car, that rear hatch rust.. You can get a replacement panel, there is more then just surface rust. it requires drilling out the original spot welds and plug welding the new piece in....

Also the haynes manual is incomplete at best especially if you have fuel injection, go with the factory service manual ( xenons30.com I think ).
