1975 Datsun 280Z S30 LS1 Swap

1975 Datsun Z-Series Additional Info:

Third owner 1975 Datsun 280Z. I have many documents from the cars past as well as receipts for everything listed.NO junk. The car spent its life in Colorado and Kansas before my ownership. It has been always garaged and there is very little to no rust, this is a very nice body. There is surface rust on the underside
and the frame rails are dented, but I have new Bad Dog rails included. Starts every single time, first turn of the key! The car has been driven less than 500 miles since the swap. I'm selling because I don't have the time to invest that the car needs and the guilt is killing me!
I have many more photos showing how clean the car is as well as videos of the car running. Email and I'll send a dropbox link.
Many other original or period parts are included:
-Extra taillights and surrounds
-OEM newly recovered seats
-Extra set of 14" Shelby wheels
-OEM door panels and extra armrests
-Emblems, seals and misc parts
-4 speed transmission
EVERYTHING IN REGARD TO THE SWAP WORKS AS IT SHOULD. And it’s fast. And gets attention. And it's loud and scary!
The Z has been garage kept for almost its entire life and has not seen rain or snow for the past 4 years. Previous owner
repainted the car in a very close factory match blue approx. 6 years ago. There are a few dings and the paint blistered on the roof from the PO's niece setting something on the roof before the paint was cured.

What needs addressed, please read this carefully. This is my opinion ONLY. You may feel different:
Car needs an alignment as I just installed the lower control arms and “adjusted” them
Rear main seal has a very slow leak (this was to be addressed this winter, but here we are)
The body has some small dings and is not perfect, but close. Previous owner let his kids park bikes next to it
in the garage. Roof has a blister from PO owner (see above).
The exhaust should be reworked and raised up with flexible hangers. It does on occasion make contact with the rear end and motor mounts. Because the car is so low big bumps will cause the exhaust to scrape.
Speedo needs calibrated, it's close but not exact.
Louvers were installed therefore there are holes in the hatch from the screws.
The antenna is broke (I have a new that is included)
This car can be a daily driver in my opinion.
I have a clean and clear title in my name ready to go. I am happy to answer any questions you may have and would be happy to talk over the phone. There are no warranties express or implied. Vehicle is sold as is. $500 deposit within 24 hours of auction end or the car will be relisted. If you can't pay, don't play. I will work with you if you would like to have the car shipped.
