    Default 280Z shell for sale with custom bodywork

    Ok I'm selling my 280Z shell. I just pulled the motor and tranny out so I could drop in a small block Chevy. I still have the mounting kit and instruction manual in case someone would like to do this. Anyways the pics will be later but here's the details, starting from the front.

    Molded in BRE style front spoiler
    Shaved headlight buckets
    240Z grille
    JDM fender mirrors
    Hood in perfect condition
    Rear fender flares molded in
    Pantera hatch (very rare)
    Molded im bumper and Ferrari style tail lights

    The only rust I see on the car that needs work, other than just sanding it off when paint prep is going on, is the pass. floor panel. You could easily cut it off to where it's squarish, then weld in a piece of metal and be done with it. It's not a very big hole. Other than that, the car is ready to be sanded and painted, and either a stock motor put back in, a turbo motor, or just a small block Chevy with the mount kit.

    The car is in Harrison, TN (part of Chattanooga) and will not be parted out. I'm asking $1000 for the car to sell it fast, or $1200 with the v8 parts and manual.







    Those are just some examples of the body, it's in great shape and ready to rock, and has some rare wheels I haven't seen on a Z before either.

    There is no title, I can provide a bill of sale, but of course it wasn't registered to me. I know who the last registered owner is, so you'll have to go to the Title Office and get papers for a situation like this. You fill it out, mail it to Nashville (if you're a TN buyer), then they mail back the last known address of the last registered owner. Then you send them a letter provided saying you have the car and wish to get it titled. If they don't send a title/bill of sale or anything like that within a certain time limit, then TN issues you a title. It's not hard to do, just might take a few weeks.

    I have more pics, just not of any of those areas you're talking about. I might have a few engine bay shots in my photobucket account. Just look at the properties on the pics to get the photobucket address for all my pics.

    i didnt change out the hatch, it came that way when ig ot it.

    You find a 280Z body with all the other custom bodywork the car has, the crossdrilled rotors and light suspension upgrades, a Spacro steering wheel and a 95% rust free body (extremeley rare) and I might think about lowering the price.....but I won't.
