It has the typical gouge marks from the seatbelt latch. Looks like somebody was loading rebar. You haven't seen the door vinyl pictures? Somebody shut the doors on that re-bar.

Zed Head Posted February 28, 2021 Author Share #568 Posted February 28, 2021 So he's not hiding anything. He just doesn't know that the direct side shot is a good one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siteunseen Posted February 28, 2021 Share #569 Posted February 28, 2021 That's what I like about BAT. No scammers can get through and they know it. Plenty of photos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dutchzcarguy Posted February 28, 2021 Share #570 Posted February 28, 2021 (edited) No one mentions the painters work? (who should be ashamed) In the first video (car exterior) on 1:22min. you can see 3! different colors of silver on the fenders and hood.. (Maybe the left fender is like the hood (if you look from another angle) the same but the right fender is much darker. as is the headlightbucket. https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1978-datsun-280z-86/ Edited March 1, 2021 by dutchzcarguy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watching the walk around video you can just feel that warm California breeze, I'm looking a foot of snow out my window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not a "matching numbers" "Series X" 240Z. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zed Head Posted February 28, 2021 Author Share #573 Posted February 28, 2021 I have come across what is obviously the true inspiration for the Z car. https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1964-alfa-romeo-giulia-1600-sprint-speciale-3/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilgrim Posted February 28, 2021 Share #574 Posted February 28, 2021 Man, that looks WONDERFULLY 50's or 60's. Italian styling from that era knocks me out!! I owned a 1958 Fiat Transformabile (Spyder) for many years. Classic 50's Italian sports car styling. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
