1976 Datsun 280Z project car, complete, 4 speed, same owner 35 years, No Reserve

You're looking at my 1976 Datsun 280Z 4 speed coupe. The previous owner bought this car in 1982. The car has typical rust issues of the early Z cars. The body panels are relatively solid with surface rust and a few areas where it's bubbled thru the metal. The underside has several areas that need attention, but repairable. The engine and transmission are original to the car, and completely stock. The seats are actually in pretty good condition. Dash is cracked. Door panels are decent. The car has been off the road for years and will need a complete restoration. It is complete and was running well when parked (wasn't put away for mechanical issues). Clean clear title in hand. I had the rear hatch open but couldn't get it to pop when I was taking these pictures. With the value of these cars rising this is a worthy project to get back on the road. Selling with no reserve. Ask any questions prior to bidding. Winning bidder MUST pay a $500 PayPal deposit immediately following the auction and wire the remaining balance within 3 business days to my bank. No exceptions. Thanks for looking and happy bidding!
