1983 Datsun 280ZX T Tops Up for auction a nice clean unmolested 280ZX and if you are looking for a RUST FREE T TOP Z car, look no futher !! This is a 1 owner car, bought new here in Tucson Az back in 83 and has only had 1 owner its whole life. Its been well kept up by the original owner and in the last 10 yrs its been more of a 2nd car and mostly only used when they where in town which was only part of the yr. A binder full of invoices and receipts will come with the Z too showing almost all the work etc done over the yrs. Receipts from std oil changes to recent brake work and new injectors, back stuff done 10 yrs ago. The car shows aprox 116k which could be original The original owner kept pretty good records too that come with car. And its a nice original un restored Z. Which with a little interior work, would be a great car. Paint is original Az faded, but for a driver, its fine.The cars been a 2nd car for most of its life which explains the low miles which we think are original . Being an AZ CAR, this is a and always has been a rust free example what most people only wish they had for a 30 yr old Z. The chrome on both bumpers is in amazing shape. No pitting or rust - and they are straight on. Check out our feedback - feel comfortable buying from someone like us with GREAT large pics in our ads and GREAT FEEDBACK helping You be more comfortable to decide to bid on our cars. Ive been driving the car around now for the last week almost daily and it has plenty of power, starts and runs great every time and is a fun to drive esp with the T TOPS off. Its still a 30 yr old NON RESTORED original Z and that being said its a great weekend car or daily driver as is, and wouldnt take much to finish the restoration if you wanted. DRIVETRAIN: Original EFI L6 runs great with plenty of power in every gear. Non turbo model in my opinion like this car have less problems and plenty of power on hand. ALL stock - un molested just the way Nissan built it. This has been adult owned and driven its whole life. Some minor oil leaks you may expect for an older car but nothing leaving puddles or anything. Trans feels good and some recent work in the last few yrs has been: NEW CLUTCH KIT w/ machined flywheel / All 6 Injectors / and Front brakes too. I believe it to be the original, matching #s even motor. INTERIOR: Front seats AND Carpet where redone in the last few yrs and are NEW ! Some other areas are Showing their age from the Az sun over a 30 yr span but fine for a daily driver and would restore easily enough in a weekend. Interior shows nice as is, and wouldnt need alot to finish the restoration. But again, this is all cosmetic and you could drive the car like this for more yrs if you wanted to.Glass is good, but the inside glass needs a good cleaning. Window tint is old could use replacing soon. AC all connected and worked last summer, but quit blowing cold this yr. Heater core started to leak a few yrs ago and is bypassed for now. Most people in Az rarely use the heat anyway in our cars. Car may not come with the radio shown in pics. It will come with original radio shown in the pics but it wont be installed, seeing as most people want to put in their own radio / stereo preference. So there will be a hole where the stock radio goes when the car shows up. I just havent had time to take the aftermarket CD player yet. IF you want me to leave it in, email me if you win the car and we can work out something. SUSPENSION: Mostly all stock original down to the OE alloy rimsFeels good, but Im sure it will need some bushings if you looked hard. But no weird noises, rear struts are NEW KYB. Tires decent, but nothing special. Some brake work recent.(We also are a tire dealer, so if you want a new set of tires installed on the car before taking delivery, let us know what you want and we can price it out for you, installed.) BODY: Really nice shape for its age. A few small dents and dings here and there, but some are so small they are hard to see in the pics. If you look close you can see a few dents on the pass side. 1 on the door and a crease on the RF fender. Hard to see in the pics. Ft valance is in decent shape. I do know the front clip was repainted in the last few yrs prob just from sun damage and age, but not sure exactly why. All the areas where the fenders meet the aprons look good and dont see any signs of previous damage or accidents. The rear license plate light is missing in the pics, but thats how we got it. I did buy a good used one for the car, just haventinstalled it yet. Ill do it this week and add a pic of it .As is you could drive it to local car events and the car would still draw a crowd.

On Apr-09-14 at 02:48:41 PDT, seller added the following information: I have the mileage in the ad at 166kbut honestly, I may be reading the odometer wrong and itmay only be 116k on it , which I know is original.Ill check the odometer again tomorrow when I drive it AND Ill checkthru the paper work that comes with the car to see if its only 116kwhich is a very good possibility and makes more sense.OH, the sunvisors do have a drooping problem too, mostly on thedrivers side unit.
