Prosgreat car even after 30 years Conshaving to clean out the fuel lines and tank was not fun
55
I Would Buy Another One — The car was almost 30 years old when i bought it and had been sitting for atleast 10 of that. The cost of replacing parts and maintaining it was not expensive. Handling and braking were very good and the car had 4 wheel disc brakes from the factory. in the cargo area you can fit 3 people lying down. I really liked the blue silver exterior paint and the overall design of the interior even though both needed to be redone. The car was a lot of fun to drive and cornered really well. There wasn't ever a time I felt uncomfortable cornering HARD. Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) |

Aclassic Car With Some Taste. A Good Choice. — well overall quality of the car is in good shape. body is straight, no major problems with it. it is currently undergoing a motor swap and undating to a 83 turbo model. should be a great car to drive once back on the road. |

Datsun 280zx Turbo — 1980 Dartun 280zx with a turbo motor swap. Turbocharged 2.8L I6 with Megasquirt Stand Alone Engine Management System and a 5-Speed. Car drives great and is a blast to drive. I am hoping to get close to 30mpg with a 300hp motor and with a 21 gallon tank that gets you almost anywhere. Parts are inexpensive and easy to find. They are a breeze to work on and are reliable even well into 300,000 miles. |

Proscould be an awesome looking car. awesome mileage ConsRUST and ROT!!
35
Another Diamond In The Rough — well, its definitely an ugly car right now. the body has tons of rust, but surprisingly it has good floors still. the body is rusted and beaten, there is a huge dent in the drivers side door that prevents it from opening properly from the outside. rust everywhere, rockers to the roof. it runs very strong though, even with being in dire need of a rebuild, and with all that it still gets great mileage,35 city and 40 highway. the interior is shot, dash has more cracks than a plumbers convention. the seats are shredded. and all the plastic, vinyl, and carpet is sun faded and rotten. |
