Description:

EXPORT NO PROBLEM!
ATTENTION COLLECTORS!!
This is a superb lovingly restored 1978 280Z in excellent condition all around!! I am a Z collector and sold this car to a buyer in Louisiana last year... for personal reasons he has barely used it and long story short, I bought it back from him. This original west coast car has been loved and meticulously maintained by 2 enthusiast owners and it shows!! Complete documented service history... Looks runs and drives amazing with tasteful and professional performance mods! Aside from the professional restoration, the car is unmolested and retains its original am/fm radio, power antenna, ultra rare working clock, unused spare and tools, etc. This is an investment grade Z and would be an awesome weekend cruiser, daily driver, or addition to any collection.
The body is straight with no collision damage whatsoever that I can see. Rust Free Car was stripped to bare metal and received a super high quality Re-Paint in correct Datsun 611 Wine Red Metallic during the resto... it presents beautifully with only the most minor blemishes... it had some touch ups around gas filler and on the bottom of the passenger door when I sold it to him... 2 years in the bayou hasnt done them much good and although still minor, they should be addressed. The car is priced accordingly... if it doesnt sell this week I will address and raise the price significantly. Frame, floors, and chassis are super solid!... retains its original undercoating! Doors close tight and windows work nice. Period correct dealer option slotted mag rims and near new tires. Get's tons of looks and compliments everywhere we roll.
The interior is fabulous as well... panels, carpet, and seats all look great... dash is cracked under the full face cover which is protected by the carpeted cover. Gauges, lights, and electronics all work properly, including the original radio and the clock!
L28 motor has been rebuilt with some performance mods... starts idles and runs fantastic... tuned perfectly and FAST! The car has great power... 5- speed Trans shifts smooth and strong through the gears!! Suspension feels tight and provides excellent ride and brakes stop straight and sure. Strong, powerful, and reliable... freshly serviced and tuned... ready to roll. . definite daily driver capable. Fully documented service history... no skimping!!
Overall this is a really cool Classic Z in great condition all around. I am a Z collector. This one makes an Awesome Weekend Cruiser, daily driver, or whatever you like. Great for any enthusiast, collector, or anyone looking for a cool and unique Vintage sports car at a great price.
The car is located in Beverly Hills CA ... Inspections are welcome and encouraged... serious buyers can call me at 310 850 8980 but no tire kickers please. I'm open to interesting trades (within ebay guidelines) but no projects or junk please. Happy to provide a walk around video and closeups of the aforementioned areas to interested parties.
