they are veryyy cool looking cars, i would buy it for 800 bucks if it even were to be just a beater car.
check for rust, dents, see how it runs, etc......
if it meets your standards, buy it.

72-78 model, and no rust holes.. i've seen them go for 5k around here with no engine/drivetrain. I wish I had one, that car may be the sexiest most versitile (in relevance to engine choice) cars that exist, in my opinion.

If it is 72-78 and even if there is some rust, for $800 I would call you crazy if you pass it up.

Last time I checked those were Z's... not S-Chassis cars. Come to the Past Z Car forum to discuss... they are not all that rare and are the more plentiful of the older Z's. Also is it NA or Turbo?

A mod should move this or lock this thread...

^ They were all Datsuns... the Z's didn't get NISSAN badging until mid-through of the First gen 300ZX...

NO-SUCH THING AS A 280SX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Me think the hood on that 240 is freakin HOT, any info on it?? :naughty:

Make sure its a 72-78 Z otherwise its not exactly a sweet ride..but still worth 800 im sure.

I think its pretty obvious that there is not such 280sx zx whatever. Its an easy assumption that he is talking about an old Z, not worth posting over
