1977 Datsun 280Z

[Matt300ZXT]

To make a long story short, this car used to be my daily driver for a while. Had a few electrical gremlins, but it wouldn't stop me from taking it all over town without any real worries. I removed the dash to sandblast the interior where there was some surface rust, put rust converter on what was left, and primed/spray painted over it to protect the metal. The interior is still mostly stripped, but I do have the stock dash and gauges that can be re-installed in a short time. I put the battery back in it and it won't crank, I'm thinking when I removed the dash, it kept some circuit from being completed or something, so that's why it won't fire. But 100% honost, it would fire up and idle and I even drove it around the block a time or two before I started stripping the insides. If someone wants to v8 a light weight rear wheel drive car, or put in a turbo engine or whatever, it's a perfect candidate.

The car has cross drilled rotors up with coilovers up front, European Z tail lights, aftermarket exhaust (sounds real nice), aftermarket swaybars, and I think that's it.

I planed on rewiring the car with an EZ Wiring kit to eliminate the electrical gremlins, and putting Autometer mechanical gauges in the dash but I do not feel like going through the trouble of putting the dash back in just to see if something unplugged from there is what's keeping the car from running. If someone would like to purchase the car as is at a lower price than what I was asking before I started, and before I go through the trouble of rewiring it, I would sell it as is. If you're interested, make a cash or trade offer.
