Parting 81 280zx 5 speed


Recommended Posts

Hey guys, I just got a 1981 Datsun 280zx. I was thinking of saving it, but the body is too far gone (rust). I still need to go over the car more, but EVERYTHING is up for grabs!

 

Parts I know that are not good or are not he best...

-driver door has some rust, but usable Free if you come pull it

-left fender is crap, but usable Free if you come pull it

-hatch has more rust then Chevy... it's junk... Not worth any time at all

-Driver seat is toast

-door panels are junk

-column switch... no worky... Gonna try and fix it and see if it can work in my 720... haha

 

Other then that, as far as I can tell, it's all in decent shape. If there is something you want pics of, let me know. All pics posted will be taken with my DSLR in high res so you can see what you are getting.

 

As far as shipping, little stuff is fine. Light wight stuff is fine, but I'm not so sure about shipping things such as the hood. Thats just a PITA. Prices do not include shipping.

Motor and trans are PULLED! What does this mean? This means the car will be scrapped most likely next week. I have the car loaded back on my trailer with only a handful of parts left to pull.

 

I really dont know what to price them at, so be fair and I will also. Anyone who knows me, knows I'm not looking to get rich and I want to move stuff and I dont dick around, so please dont do it to me. First come first serve.

 

I dont plan to put too much time into this car and it will be going to scrap in the next week or so. Some parts I will remove and saveed.

PM or post in here, or give me a call. 206-313-1955, my name is Robin. Leave a message if I dont pick up. I also have a small business so if you get that in my VM, you do have the right number.

Ok, I did a once over on the phone with a good friend of mine thats a Z nut (Doug at Fairlady Motors/UP Garage). He says it's parts... The batt tray is comepletly gone and the wheel well is started to show day light. The cowl has cancer as well as the right side frame rail. Also has some other rust in the driver door jam and above the tail lights.

 

So she is getting parted out... I'll post a thread up for it in a bit...

 

Here is what she looks like right now...

Also keep in mind, I need the car to still roll to get it back on my trailer to haul away. As soon as I have the motor and trans pull with the right side body parts, it will go on the trailer and I will then strip the rest of it. I'm hoping to have the motor/trans pulled this Sunday. As soon as I do that it will be loaded and off to the scrap yard.

I started to rip it apart already. Almost got it running though! Wont stay running for long then 10 seconds though. No knocks though so I'm pulling the motor and trans for sure.

 

I got the body kit and wing off. Holy crap the hatch has a ton of rust! Some guy wants the wing... haha... I still kinda did it, but nothing to use it on. The car has more and more rust the more I get into it. I set a battery in the tray and it fell throught the wheel well... no joke... LOL

How much for the body kit & wing? Would like to know shipping to 97501.

 

I think I have the wing sold already... But if you wanted the kit and wing, $150. The front bumper is not woth thipping, it's a bit beat up but the side skirts and spats are in really nice shape! Let me know if you are still interested.

 

$100 for the skirts and spats + shipping.

 

how much for the trans?

It's much worse then it looks. Trust me, I didnt want to part it, but the car is just worth more in parts. I put a battery in it today and it feel through the wheel well...

I guess if it was in a running car where you could drive it. Sorry but a 180K used one is a crap shoot.

 

 

 

What's wrong with everyone???? ZX struts and big caliper brakes!!!! $75 a side would be a deal. 15/16" master. Rear disc brakes!!!! Large 14" mag rims.

 

Love the steering wheel. Have that style on both my 710s.

Well make up your mind here. Sell or part?

 

How about we combine these two threads into the Parting Out post, to keep everything together
