Okay I have here a 1978 datsun 280z. I purchased it on craigslist 2 years ago this december and havent done much other than some disassembly. I had good intentions on restoring the car when I bought it and I have come to the conclusion that I do not have the time because of my 68 ford highboy I am also restoring..... So here goes I also purchased my Z i had in highschool back from a local salvage yard (because of the parts I remember putting on it (It was there because the father who bought it from me to give to his son and he wrapped it around a large wooden object. Point being I have alot of good duplicate parts. The car itself needs alot of work. I know that and you should know that too! It does not run so you can not drive it home. It and all parts going with the car will have to be hauled away. The car will need floorboard work and framerail work. It sat in a field in new jersey for a few years. The wheels do clean up nice. The center caps are all there one is just missing the eagle alloys sticker in the center. The second drivetrain I know for sure had 103000 miles on it before impact (motor 5 speed driveshaft stub axles and rear end) I sold the car with just under 100000 miles on it so it didnt go far! The title is a clear new jersey title in hand. I will not sell individual parts from the lot it all has to go. If you decide you want all the parts and not the car, sure but you still have to pay the reserve amount and the car will go to salvage yard. well here goes on the parts list

2 motors one a 1978 the other a 197? non turbo

2 5 speed trannsmissions

2 rear ends

4 stub axles

2 driveshafts

2 complete dashes one still in car

2 steering wheels one in car is aftermarket

space saver spare tire and tool kit bag(no tools)

2 new lower cowl pieces in primer and lower cowl(not as nice)

there is alot of stuff on the shelf and my tool cart that goes as well that would take up way too much space here basically enough stuff for at least one car figure on alot of extras! If you have any questions feel free to ask. I will help with getting the car on a hauler and that is it. I am not responsible for shipping the buyer is! I had this car delivered to me by a professional. I will help get the parts on whatever you have to put them on or in! thanks for looking and good luck

 

 

 

 

OKAY PEOPLE I WILL NOT SPLIT THE LOT FOR INDIVIDUAL PARTS I THOUGHT I WAS CLEAR OF THIS. IF YOU WANT A PART BID AND WIN $800.00 BUYS IT ALL NOW!   TORONTO OHIO IS ON THE EASTERN SIDE OF OHIO ABOUT 1 HOUR WEST OF PITTSBURGH PENNSYLVANIA THANK YOU
