1978 Datsun 280z Nearly Restored - PURPLE

[alissa280z]

Up for sale is a 1978 Datusn 280z, 5 speed that I have been restoring for the past 10 years with my brother and father. She is located in CT and is over 95% complete. She just needs a few things to get her in full working order. She runs great and is ready for the road. Unfortunately, I do not have the time or space to complete her as life events have changed. 

Original body has 94,000 miles before restoration.

Here is a list of items completed:

• Rebuilt Engine by Carlquist with only a few hundred miles
• New exhaust, including manifold
• EFI to Carb conversion, Carbs restored by Vinny Bedini
• New tires with used slotted mag wheels
• New shocks, struts, bearing, bushings
• Rust repair on fenders, wheel wells, etc
• New Clutch
• New windshield glass
• Removed Engine bay zbart and painted
• New Battery and alternator
• Insulation under carpet, new rear deck carpet
• New Radiator
• New speakers

Items left to complete:

• Washer hose
• Vacuum tank for air vents
• Replace tire valves, didn't get replaced with new tires and they leak a little air
• Brackets for 240z bumper cover that is to replace old rusty 280z one.
• Radio connection, original one works but cuts in and out on occasion
• A few nics in the paint, could use a touch up and buff

I had a second 280z and still have a ton of extra parts from that vehicle. All parts come with car and include: 4 speed, windows, dashboard, nuts/bolts, and much more! 

Photos are not uploading, so please see links. More photos coming soon.
