Eva Racing? Mystery import in the US

P

Phoenix_400

Hello, I'm new to the forum and i need some help finding info on a car.  I live in North Carolina in the good ol' U.S. of A and i've come across 280z that's been imported over. The current owner can't tell me much about the car so I'm currently searching for information.
  All I've been told about the car is that it was built for racing for a European family.  It was built by a company called Eva Racing.  The owner says that it is 77 model and it has a 2.8L engine with triple Weber carbs.  It is still RHD and the body and interior are in need of restoration.  THe color appears to be a two tone maroon red w/ black running along the lower portion of car and a yellow stripe separting the two colors. It also has a chin spoiler with the words "EVA DATSUN Z" in reverse lettering across it. It also has a "Fairlady Z" badge on the rear deck.
  I was given the VIN # but i believe it was told to me incorrectly. it is GS31003232
  I WILL be buying the car by the end of the week simply for the rarity of RHD, but i would appreciate any info you could give me. 1000 bones don't seem like a bad deal on something of that rarity. Bet i can talk him down too.

Sadly what you describe has little cross-over to the U.K. market. I suspect what you have is a Japanese home market car that has found its way across the world via another European country.
