1978 Datsun 280z Nissan 280z on 2040-cars

Here is a true survivor 1978 Datson 280Z  2 seater. The car runs and drives great, however I would recomend you trailer it or ship it home. It has been sitting for about 15 years in storage. It will need tires and a tune up as well as the brakes blead. I fired it up the other day and the longer I run it the better it ran. The clutch started slipping so I brought it to the mechanic to have the clutch fixed but it was only a mouse nest in the bellhousing, so I had him put the new clutch kit in anyway. I drove it home at highway speeds it ran out just fine. (about 20 miles) breaks were a little spongey but worked great. I also put in a new battery.

The A/C still blows COLD!

Spare tire, jack,and charge bottle for the spare are still in trunk...( These are very hard to find)

As far as the body goes It's in great shape for a 78 datson....The floor pans are perfect, rockers are perfect, door bottoms are perfect,inner fenders are perfect. The only bad part about the car is somone in 1985 brought it in to a shop and put the fender flares on it. ( which are cracking where they meet the body) I think they got busted up in storage from being bumped all the time. In my opinion I would put new rear quarters on it and bring it back to orginal. (look at the pictures I showed a reciept for the work done in 1985)

The other bad spot on the car is underneath the floor pans is a square tube that runs from front to back ( looks like the frame molded into the floor pans) on that piece where the car has scraped the ground or what ever, it scraped the undercoating off of it so a few spots rusted out not on the sides just the bottom looks like three spots about 2'' wide by 4'' long nothing too serious.

I have the owners manual as well as the orginal window sticker from when it was new. (look at pictures)

This would be a great car to restore or just drive it the way it is!
