Vehicle Description
GR Auto Gallery is pleased to offer this 1977 Datsun 280Z ZZZap
Edition for your consideration. The Datsun 280Z is known for being
mechanically robust, reliable, and simple vehicles to own. It was
named by Road and Track, as the "Most exciting GT car of the
decade." The 2.8 liter overhead cam inline 6 has proven to be a
bulletproof engine providing 150hp and 160ftlbs of torque. The
motor is paired with a sporty 4-speed manual transmission.
The 280Z offered here is a highly original example finished in a
striking coat of yellow paint(#411 paint code). The black vinyl
interior is in good condition and shows minimal signs of wear.
Highlights include rear window defogger, auxiliary gauges, Kenwood
radio, Alpine speakers, and exterior racing stripe. Overall the car
presents itself extremely well with its clean interior. The car was
bought new in Newburg, Oregon on 8/17/1977. The car ended up in
Wyoming, where it spent 99% of its life. The car has maintenance
records that show it has been driven only 2,500 miles in the past
20 years, along with the original owners manual, original 1977
service manual, amazingly perfect original tool kit, up-opened tire
inflator canister. The original "Made in Japan" muffler and full
factory exhaust are still on the car.
This example is one of 1000 original ZZZap Editions built as a
"special decor package." The ZZZap Edition was created in
collaboration with an arcade game in which the vehicle was
featured. These vehicles are not common sights and rarely come up
for sale.
Driving the 280Z is a dream with a tight 4-wheel independent
suspension, power-assisted brakes, and rack and pinion steering.
Datsun Z cars have an enormous following around the globe and are
considered the entry-level collectible with the biggest future.
Although their production numbers were high, their survival rate is
low. Cars of this quality are becoming increasingly hard to find.
