Up for sale is my 1977 Datsun 280z with a white interior. I originally bought it from a gentleman in Tucson, AZ who bought it from the original owner and was just reselling it. The original owner had passed away and the family sold it to the gentleman I bought it from. Prior to me buying it the last tags were from 1992 so it had been sitting for a very long time. During that time it acquired a really cool patina that is unique with absolutely no deep rust on the car. There is absolutely zero deep rust gremlins on this car besides very light surface rust in the more weathered areas.
The interior was restored with some sporty touches such as the seat embroidery and competition spec wooden steering wheel. In addition, sound deadening was added, and everything behind the dash was also restored.
My goal over the past 6 years was to create a unique driver's car. I cared less about the paint and much more about the suspension, engine, and interior. For anyone buying this car it truly only needs a nice paint job or clearing the patina and you will have yourself a pretty sweet ride.

Modifications

Engine (numbers matching)
*** It now runs more modern fuel injection using TunerStudio with the STMPRO ECU.
Comp Cams 280s stage 1 camshaft
MSA 6 to 1 headers
Zstory resonator, muffler, and midpipes
LSX ignition coils
Electric Fans and Fan controller
OneSix crank position sensor
High impedance fuel injectors
Cold air intake
Protunerz throttle body
Modern TPS, IAT sensor, coolant temperature sensor, O2 sensor, etc

Suspension/ Drivetrain

1988 300zx 3.7 R200 CLSD
Fidanza light weight flywheel
ACT road racing clutch pressure plate and friction disk
Koni struts
Eibach lowering springs
All polyurethane bushings
Polyurethane top mounted differential
LED (original look) headlights and taillights

Everything else in the drivetrain was restored to OEM spec back in 2022 with powder-coated suspension components.

The radio/ antennae and audio system were all restored and functional.

This car is by no means perfect, but it has excellent bones for anyone who is handy in the automotive industry and wants a drivers car to go rip around on the weekends. I am only selling because I joined the Navy and no longer live in Arizona, and am unwilling to take this car near the ocean, where rust can take its course. I have hundreds of photos of what has been modified/ restored for the next owner. I also have a custom wiring diagram for how the new fuel injection system was set up. Any uninstalled parts such as interior trim peices, original components will also be included. I have the original sale paper from the dealership/ hood bra etc.

my # is six 0 two - five 5 eight - five four 5 eight. My name is Clayton.
