Gollum Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 oh come on guys, it's obviously photoshopped. He's just having some fun with us. Look at where the exhaust comes out, there's a huge black section that's all pixelated because it's a huge section of a single color trying to black it out. And look at the shadow under the rear wheel, it doesn't match at all, and you can see a black line trying to cover the old tire. It's photoshop.

signal34 Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 I bought my 81 280ZXT at the beginning of last summer. Flew to New Jersey and drove it back to the midwest. One owner, turned 70K miles on the way home and still has the original floor mats. Now its a sunny summertime driver only. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like it is in such great shape that I wouldn't do anything to it other than maintain it. It still amazes me that this car sold for over $17,000 when new. Good luck with it.

I recently bought a 77 280Z that should satisfy my need to modify things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BleachZee Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 Well I finally got my fronts spoiler painted and put on so here are some pics. Nice looking car and I like those headlights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S130Z Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 Thanks a lot BleechZee, Those lights are just cheapy eBay $30 housings with an HID kit in them. They really perform horribly. By the way, I was about five minutes away from putting your avatar picture as mine until I came across one of your posts and noticed you already had it. Gotta love the classic Transformers.

yellazed Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Just added a '79 2-seater to the Z stable. It's a low kms 5-speed turbo, imported from UK in '93. Rare here as we only had the NA 2+2. Mine has black leather seats and vinyl trim, no velour anywhere, thankfully. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeero Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Wow yella! I am in love with your Z! Not too certain if I love or hate the brush guard (?) but the rest of that vehicle is beautiful! Nice score! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yellazed Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 It's kinda practical because it sure is hard to judge where that front bar is, but it spoils the front badly so I'll be pulling it off. I wonder why Zs are so addictive. I've just bought this one, (no. 5) yet I still find myself cruising the 'for sale' columns! There are still a few models I don't have, but unlike a 1:18 model collection it is getting harder to find room for the full scale ones!! My wife says I should sell one or two, but it's like doing away with one of your children. 'Sophie's Choice' - which one do you abandon? Anyway, thanks for the support for the 'unloved' one.

LZ1 Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 Yella, I love that car. You wouldn't happen to know what front spoiler that is and where those lower rear quarter panel flares are from would you? Sweet ride!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gollum Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 yella, I'm not trying to be an ass, so don't take this the wrong way. But are you SURE it's a 79'? Reason I ask is that as far as I was aware nissan didn't make any turbo models until 81', worldwide, not just the USA. Definitely a sweet car though man.

BleachZee Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 Looking at the other pictures on the imageshack page of that 1979 turbo, I can see it 'appears' to be an NA engine with an added turbo on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuoWing Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Guys I have one of the last 280ZXs around. At least as far as I can tell. Looking in the Black Dragon Auto Catalog they show that the 280ZX ends at 6/83 and the last 6 digits of the vin being 757691. My 280ZXT on the little door plate has a production date of 7/83 and the last 6 digits of my vin are: 758761 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
