1980 Datsun 280zx as per pics. I owned this in New Zealand and imported it over in 2015 when I settled in the UK. Much loved car and my circumstances are changing so, after a lot of agonizing and stalling, I have to sell this one. Car came to me with the rust seen and without an engine and I have installed a reconditioned and upgraded engine from a 1983 280zx.

Currently MOT’d and being used when the roads are dry. Drives great and sounds great with custom headers and improved cam. Interior is complete and in great shape apart from rips in the drivers seat edge and top of rear seat backs. I have installed central locking and an alarm (smart entrance module) off a modern nissan which is very convenient. Also installed is a decent Sony head unit and Bluetooth input. Car has 5 iron cross alloys (so full size spare).

This car has benefited from a prior restoration and has not been driven on any roads with salt so the underneath is in solid. I have also had rust at the bottom of B pillars cut and welded. Pics are there if needed. Additional pics are supplied to show chassis legs and front end etc in the link below.

Car is as per pics. There are some cosmetic bits that need doing at some stage (not structural and not on MoT advisories). Additional photos show these and the price reflects the work needed. There is a great opportunity to get the car tidied up and own an appreciating classic.

These cars are harder to find In roadworthy condition and are very nice cars to own. I have always kept the car under cover and I have prevented water from getting into the bodywork.

Note that plates are currently showing a 1984 car but I am getting a dating letter from the club to send to the DVLA to get this registered as the actual year of manufacture of 1980 - making this a tax and mot free car next year. Mileage 133k miles.
