Datsun 1977 280z Sold Sold Sold, thanks for looking everyone!

I have for sale a 1977 280z Datsun with a 1983 f54/p79 block/head motor in it. The current motor swap makes a good bump in power for the car and I feel these cars from the factory should have come like this.

Reason for selling: I’m moving and my new place no longer has a garage, I don’t have the heart to keep her in a non garaged environment.

Asking Price: Sold Sold Sold, thanks for looking everyone!

History of the Vehicle: purchased this car at the beginning of the summer for $4500 and had it shipped over from Las Vegas for $1000. The car was owned by Jim Koch in Vegas who did the motor/transmission swap on the car less than a year ago. Jim had bought the vehicle in 2010 from another seller in Vegas. It has been a West Coast car all its life.

Milage: Current Odometer reading shows 19k but its rolled over so its 119k. Motor has less than 60k and since refresh less than 3k.

Current Condition: Running, there is a small leak in the Brake Master Cylinder so I’m getting that replaced. (Not taking any chances with brakes)
Motor pulls strong without any issues.
4 new tires with 90% tread left.
Heater core is currently bypassed because I noticed a small leak in one of the cabin hoses, this is an easy fix just replace the hose, if the buyer wants I can replace the hose and re hookup the heater lines.
No AC installed, I have ac parts but they are not currently in the car these will go along with the sale of the car.

Exterior: The car has clean metallic green paint, a lot of people say its very close to or is BRG (British Racing Green) I would say the paint on this car is ok/good. I am very picky about paint so it would probably be more so on the side of good. The car was repainted 3 years ago so it is new paint but it needs a good waxing and go through. I have not had the time to fully wash/clean the car. So as it sits now it’s a bit dirty. It has MSA front fiberglass spoiler and stock bumpers. Body has a few dings/dents and MSA front fiberglass spoiler (Same color) has some small chips in it. Bumpers are perfect, new chrome no holes dings or dents.

Body: Zero rust on this car, this is the reason I bought it even if you want to pick this car up as a shell it would be a great start for a full restoration/rebuild. The car still has the factory antirust undercoating (although I would recommend stripping that and resealing it sometime in the future.) Gas tank was reboiled by owner before Jim.

Details:
Motor: 1977 280z with 1983 f54/p79 block/head
Motor was recently refreshed (by previous owner Jim) with new rings, bearings, gaskets and a valve job. Less than 3k miles on the motor since refresh.

Transmission: 5 speed zx trans with 280zx turbo clutch and flywheel.

Suspension: MSA performance springs, tockico struts and poly bushings.

Exhaust: 6 into 1 header through a converter into ultra high flow muffler.

Brakes: Stock brake setup, new pads all around.

Wheels: Enkei 92 Mesh 16x7 wheels

Interior: Interior is ok it has a dashcap (I haven’t gotten a chance to take off the cap and see how the condition of the original dash is)
Seats are very clean except for a small seam splitting in the drivers seat.
Clean center console with no cracks decent black carpet and clean door panels.

No one interested? I really need this gone! Bump!

 

Don't be afraid to make offers people!!!

 

This is a really nice car. Wish I could swing it!

 

Thanks, I hate to get rid of it but I have to.

 

Wow already for sale? Jim put alot of work getting an enige that did not smoke into this car. I tried to get him to trade me rims but those actually work with the car.

GLWS!

You should see the one jim just finnished!

 

Hey Skittles, yeah unfortunately I'm moving and I won't have the garage space anymore... I also picked up another boosted Z... so one's got to go (or the gf will kill me) I also won't keep this outside to rot in the new england winter and I'm addicted to boost... so boosted car wins.
Well if you like the rims I'll sell you them along with the car!

 

Back up for sale, had a pending buyer who put down a deposit but he backed out without even coming to look at the car... Taking offers.

 

I added some new pictures to the photobucket album

Damn, thats a nice car! I'm like you though, I prefer boosted. If she had been turbo'd, I'd be all over it!

 

My other ones turbo'd

I had planned a sr20 or rb swap for this one but life changes your plans sometimes. The chassis on the new one is honestly better (zero rust) than my 2+2 but my l28et is already built and swapped so I'm keeping that for now. I am addicted to boost...

Buy it and throw a l28et in it or sr or rb!

 

Tempting! I actually know someone in town that does those type of engine swaps. Wish I would have never sold my 280Z-T.

I recognize that 2+2. I think it was for sale both on HybridZ and Ebay. Nice car!

 

Yeah I just picked it up off of Mark from Hybrid Z, great guy and seller. Car runs great with a t3/t4 turbo.
