This 1978 Datsun 280Z has been in the same family since 1980, when
the consignor's father bought it from the original owner. Repainted
in its past in it's original Sky Blue factory shade, it creates a
perfect canvas for this iconic Japanese sports car. The sleek
fastback design is enhanced by the dealer-installed split sunroof,
while the rear window louvers add an extra dose of period-correct
style. The 14-inch factory wheels are wrapped in 195/75R14 tires,
giving this Z its proper stance.
The black vinyl interior features bucket seats split by a center
console that puts the shifter in the perfect position. The factory
AM/FM radio with power antenna adds entertainment value, while the
ventilation controls (no a/c) help keep you comfortable. The dash
layout puts every gauge and control within easy reach, maintaining
the driver-centric design that made these Z cars legendary.
With only 30,230 believed actual miles, the 2.8L inline-six runs
like a Swiss watch. Mated to a crisp-shifting 5-speed manual
transmission, this Z delivers pure driving excitement. The aluminum
radiator keeps things running cool while the aftermarket exhaust
provides the perfect soundtrack. Fresh mechanical work includes new
fuel injectors, plugs, rotor, cap, and wires. The MacPherson strut
suspension with front sway bar and power front disc brakes let you
carve through corners with precision.
