I have enjoyed this car for 10 years. It has a clean Oregon title and the body is clean and straight and looks very nice! Very reliable, starts right up, engine idles and runs smoothly. The car handles nicely and loves to run. The car is very agile and quick and is fun to drive at any speed. It is a very reliable driver, although I don't drive it very often at all (well less than 1, 000 miles a year in the last several years). I keep this car covered in our attached garage most of the time and drive it only on special occasions and only in nice weather.
Condition:
The car is in very good overall condition. Electronics all work (including headlights - both high and low beams, turn signals, hazard switch, gauges and their lights, windshield wipers, defogger, power antenna, map light, dome light, CD player AND tape player). The clutch master & slave cylinders recently replaced. Lots of work done (see incomplete list below).
Featuring:
Suspension --
• Tokico HP 'blue' gas shocks
• Urethane bump stops
• Motorsport Auto (MSA -- see 'the z store' online) springs -- lowered by 1.5-2 (results in a much improved look, and performance)
• MSA front (1) & rear (3/4) anti-sway bars with new links & urethane bushings (makes a huge difference you can feel in corners!)
Steering -- (these combined upgrades resulted in a much better feel for the road through the steering wheel)
• MSA steering rack bushings
• MSA urethane performance steering coupler
• MSA tension rod T/C kit
Clutch --
• Master & slave cylinders
• Stainless steel clutch hose (brake hoses are stainless also)
Ignition/timing/charging --
• New ignition switch
• Distributor cap & rotor
Drivetrain --
• Differential mount replaced (fixes the all too common clunk in the rear when shifting)
Cooling --
• Most under-hood coolant hoses replaced, including all hard-to-reach ones on injector rail
Fuel --
• All rubber fuel lines under hood replaced, including on injector rail
Lighting
• Autopal multi-surface reflector H-4 headlights - nice and bright!
• New combination switch* (very hard to find)
NEW Parts included (not yet installed):
• Steering -- left & right tie rod ends, left & right ball joints
• Fuel -- PCV valve
• I also have a complete urethane bushing kit which will come with the car (some of these bushings have already been installed, some I have not got to yet). Each time I install more I can feel an improvement over the stock rubber ones.
Also included:
(see photos)
• High quality CoverCraft cover - exact fit, water repellant, etc. I keep this on the car when it is in the garage (all the time).
• Keys with leather 'Z' key fob (white Z on blue background)
• Manuals (Chilton Z repair manual, 1975 280z owner's manual – not the correct year but it came with the car when I bought it)
Payment:
I would prefer to be paid via cashier's check (or wire transfer). Once the check clears I will send the title to you and you can arrange shipping. If you have any questions about payment or anything else, please don't hesitate to contact me!
Shipping, logistics, etc.
Shipping will be the responsibility of the buyer.
