On 19 August 2013 I visited Mike Feeney who had been advertising a 280zx on behalf of its owner. Apparently the car had been purchased new in Saudi Arabia in 1980 and brought back to the Uk by its owner as part of an event called Eurodrive 80 which is reported in the Summer 91 edition of the Z Club Magazine. After this event the vehicle had been stored in a Liverpool garage and left until May 2012 when it was delivered to Mike with instructions to get it running and sell it. The car ran very well, was virtually rust free, taxed and MoT'd we negotiated a price and I drove it home.
Whilst in storage it had been well bashed about, all panels suffering dents, scratches and creases. I ran it until the tax expired in Sept and then left it with a local body specialist who agreed to repair and respray it over the winter, fitting it in when time permitted. The vehicle was finished in March having had 96 dents removed! It is now back on the road looking really smart.
