Description

Well, I used to find stuff like this all the time.Not so much anymore.What this is is a 1976 Datsun 280Z. 4 speed transmission.. That had sat for the last 10-15 years or so in outdoor storage behind the elderly owners home in Southern Oregon ..It was originally burnt orange/red now painted gold.The body is not bad. Good floors,inner and outer rockers, doglegs, spare box,front inner wheelwells at firewall,etc. Some rust bubbling on lower corner doors and a few other places.And the front headlight frame extension hood hinge mount area is rusted out. A few small dents, some clearcoat loss.The floor rails should be replaced due to rust out in the rear sections.But overall this is not a rusty car. It needs total restoration in and out.Seat covers, carpet,probably door panels need replacing.Some of the rear quarter plastic panels are gone.And I imagine other stuff, but most everything is here to work with..Missing front and rear bumpers. Car has a sunroof. Small, well done,with a inner cover, but a sunroof nonetheless.This will be a great car to restore or build anything you want. Great bones to work with.The engine should be good to go but no guaranties on that. The compression is excellent straight across. 120,118,125,122,125 and 120.Will need all fluids changed,filters, major tuneup, belts,hoses,brakes bled, gas tank flushed and all the rest of the fun stuff to get a 15 year sitting car going again. But this car will be worth that and will be a great one to work with.I travel around the West Coast with my truck and trailer and might be able to get it to you or close. And can arrange trucking to Long Beach California shippers for overseas buyers for $300. Clean straight title.Bidders with less than 10 positive feedback must contact me before bidding or else bid will be cancelled.
