Description
What a blast. This original spec time machine transports the driver back to their youth, when they had a 280Z or a friend did. You cannot avoid having lots of comments, stories, and photo requests every time you drive her. I have had the car about 6 years now. The previous owner restored her about 15 years before that, deviating from original spec by only the wheels and tires. At times I have used this car as a daily driver as she runs great. She is 37 years old and 15 years since her restoration, so she has the usual paint chips from normal use.
She is a head turner that looks great inside and out and is a blast to drive. Unfortunately, it is time for this sweet ride to have another owner. I really want this car to be sold to an enthusiast who knows the level of care that has been put into this car. More photos and spreadsheet available upon request.
Previous owner restoration from 1998-2000 included repainting the exterior, completely redoing the interior, and replacing the engine at 60k miles. Receipts from the restoration are available as well as a spreadsheet summarizing all of the details. Over $35,000 was invested before I bought her in 2008, with a further $6000 invested since then.
Per emails I have with previous owner, I am the third owner of this car. I have maintained her well while under my care, with receipts available. Serious buyers only please.
