1981 Nissan 280ZX Non-turbo for sale
Current customer rating: (158 votes ) based onLast month I drove it from Orlando back to Oklahoma. 1200 miles. without ANY problems. although it WAS an adventure!. there's lots of road noise. unbelievably. there's no cup holder(?!). nbsp; the cruise control doesn't work. no instrument lights. your foot gets wet if it's raining. no working AC (tinted windows help though). no working radio. (something in the wiring). nbsp; the turn signal canceller doesn't work. etc. (however. the instrument lights did come back on once I got back to Oklahoma and stopped at the grocery store). but those little idiosyncrasies are all fixable and are all the things that make owning and driving a good-looking 36-year-old 280 (Japanese Corvette) that much more challenging and fun to drive.
Just before returning the car to Oklahoma. a new clutch kit was installed and while it was apart. some leaky seals replaced. The 4-wheel disc brakes will literally stop the car on a dime. and the fronts were completely redone (calipers. hoses. etc. ) within the past year. Tires are still good. Glass is all good. power windows go up and down. (and although there's a small rock ding in the windshield. it's one that can be filled). I never have replaced the u-joints. so I'm sure they'll need looking at. All this car really needs is some attention to a bunch of little things. none of which will really keep you from cruising!
I'll be 70 next month. and in spite of that. I've been building a 1950s style hot rod roadster. I'm restoring an old army jeep and I have 3 other cars (1999-2006) that I look after. I've finally decided that this one needs a new owner/caretaker. It's an absolutely great running. good looking 36-year-old vehicle. It's what I refer to as a "15-mile-per-hour car". At 15 mph it looks (and runs and sounds) like a new sports car. Get up close to it and you see the little chips and nicks and bends. scratches. 36 years of wear and tear. nbsp; and USE. but it still looks really good. This car is a 'too-much-fun' DRIVER! It drives and stops like a go kart. and the interior is nice enough that your wife/girlfriend will probably get into it. willingly! . No Reserve. so. bid away!
OK. I have added some more detailed pictures. Engine compartment. seat backs. old bondo cracking on rear deck. rough spots on fenders. etc. As I stated these are all things that can be fixed/touched up. I'm also including an official Datsun service manual to help out the new owner.
