I am selling this car for my uncle. The car is sitting in his backyard. Several years ago, I think 2-3 but possibly longer, he took this to the auto body shop and had some engine work done on it. At that time he was told that, "THE FRAME WAS RUSTED AND THAT THE CAR WAS UNSAFE TO DRIVE." Ever since it has sat in his backyard. Therefore, this car is being sold AS-IS, and anyone that wants it will have to bring a truck or trailer and tow or remove it from the yard. Under no circumstance will this car be able to be or be allowed to be driven off the property.
That said, this was the last year they made the Nissan 280ZX. After 1983, Nissan made the nasty 300ZX, which looked like a cross between a yard Jart and a cylon inspired bottle rocket. The 280ZX had style and class, and this is what you will be trying to restore back into this car, provided the frame can be replaced and/or repaired. Like is said, this is a strip it down and rebuild it to its former glory kind of project.
Guaranteed to have a clear title, or if necessary a rebuild or salvage title. The person I am selling this for is a local official, so you will leave with the car and title--or not at all. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO GO DOWN TO THE COURTHOUSE AND EXCHANGE TITLE, YOU WILL NOT LEAVE WITH THE CAR. No taking care of it later.
Please contact me with any questions. I live about 5 minutes from the car. Please review the pictures. They are fairly representative, although they were taken a season ago. Contact for updated pictures and information, and if you are in the area, then by al means please feel free to make an appointment with me to see the car in person--I highly recommend it.
I will update the auction with as much information as I can, as it becomes available to me.

Daimler and Nissan venture to build cars in Mexico
Sat, 22 Mar 2014Nissan and Daimler have been partnering ever closer for years, and now an unnamed source has told Reuters that the automakers have agreed to a 50-50 joint venture in Mexico that would build Infiniti and Mercedes-Benz models. Given that the rumors about just such a deal go back nearly six months and similar rumblings are years old, this arrangement has been a long time coming.
The insider tells Reuters that a memorandum of understanding was signed between them last month to build the Mercedes GLA-Class and new Infinitis at Nissan's Aguascalientes factory. The rumor didn't say when production would begin. It wouldn't be the first time the two automakers have decided to share this platform - Infiniti will build its Q30 compact on it in the UK next year.
The partnership between the Renault-Nissan Alliance and Daimler goes back to 2010 when the companies signed an agreement to share engines, factories and platforms. Since then, products of the partnership have included the underpinnings for the next-generation Smart and Renault Twingo and shared engines among some other models.
Andy Palmer leaves Renault-Nissan to serve as CEO of Aston Martin
Tue, 02 Sep 2014Aston Martin has been without a helmsman since Ulrich Bez stepped down from the chief executive office at the end of last year, stepping back to serve as non-executive chairman in a semi-retired ambassadorial capacity. The British automaker, now on the cusp of a new era, has been running without a CEO since, but has now named Bez's replacement in Andy Palmer.
If you don't recognize the name, you should: Palmer has worked under the Renault-Nissan Alliance for decades now, rising through the ranks to become one of the top executives under Carlos Ghosn. Most recently he was serving as executive vice president of the entire group and chairman of the Infiniti brand, but like Carlos Tavares, who recently left Renault to run Peugeot, Palmer is now embarking on a new mission as CEO of Aston Martin.
Once the transition period is complete at the start of October, Palmer's role as Chief Planning Officer at Renault-Nissan will be assumed by Philippe Klein, who steps up from his current role as executive vice president of product planning for Renault. Read the statements from both companies below.
Hurricane Sandy cost automakers 15,000 vehicles, may have ruined up to 200k
Wed, 07 Nov 2012Hurricane Sandy was the largest Atlantic storm in US history, and its total economic impact is just now coming into view. According to Automotive News, Toyota, Chrysler, Nissan and Honda are set to scrap around 15,000 new vehicles ruined by the storm. Nissan alone accounts for about 40 percent of those, with 6,000 Nissan and Infiniti models deeded "un-saleable" due to damage. The company saw 56 dealerships shuttered due to the storm, but 51 of those have since reopened.
Toyota, meanwhile, had some 4,000 vehicles at its Newark port facility, and of those, 3,000 may be scrapped. An additional 825 were dealer inventory when they were ruined. Honda and Acura dealers are reportedly sending 3,440 vehicles to the salvage yard. By comparison, Chrysler weathered the storm fairly well with 825 units destroyed, while Hyundai suffered only 400 lost units and Kia scrapped around 200.
As you may recall, Fisker also suffered some losses, and Automotive News reports the manufacturer saw 320 Karma models damaged beyond repair. Ford and General Motors have yet to come up with estimates, and no automaker has commented on the full cost of replacing the vehicles.
