Hey everybody, I'm debating selling my GRM Challenge project car. It's a rust free '75 Datsun 280z. Here's a list:
Exterior:
Custom Rustoleum gloss black paint job (sarcastic about custom)
Shaved side markers and emblems
Slotted mag wheels
Rising sun painted on the hood
Tinted tail lights
Interior:
Mint 240z seats
Stripped sound deadener
Grant steering wheel
Custom Gauge panel (w/ boost gauge, AFR gauge, and 1 other gauge)
Hello Kitty horn button
POR-15/Truck Bed lined floors (Will be done before sold)
Dash Cap
Grenade Shifter Knob
Engine:
P30 block (Supposed to have work done to it but I can't verify)
E88 Head
SU Carbs
6-1 Header
Port and polished
Dual valve springs
Upgraded valves
Suspension:
Turn Six lowering springs
New brake pads/shoes
Aftermarket sway bars
Extras:
3 Head Gaskets
2 Intake/Exhaust gaskets
*The motorwork I see is just from pulling the intake and valve cover. Not sure what else is done to it.
Needs:
Front valance/ or front air dam
Carpet/Sound deadner (If you want, not a big deal for me)
Tires (Good for some burnouts or drifts http://www.tamparacing.com/forums/tamparacing/smiles/biggrin.gif )
A little fixing where the PO tried shaving the side signals
Paint (if you don't like the current paint job, it was painted (Rustoleum Gloss Black) with a paint brush and it's got a couple runs and you can see the brush strokes, but looks good from 10 feet http://www.tamparacing.com/forums/tamparacing/smiles/biggrin.gif
I'm not going to lie, she needs some more work to get her looking good, but once some little things are fixed she'll be a beauty.
The only reason I'm debating selling it is because I don't really have the time for a project car. There's not much left to get it running. There's a catch, if it sells I'd like to have first dibs on it if the buyer ever sells it. This car has sentimental value because it's my first car, and it's the first thing I've owned that I've payed for everything myself and invested a lot of time into. I'd like to get somewhere around $2,800, but I'd rather trade it for a Miata, S13, S14, E30 BMW, FB or FC RX7, Porsche 944, or something of that nature. I'm located in Daytona Beach, FL.
For the right trade I can include a '92 Lexus LS400 with rims that needs a timing belt and water pump. Really need/want a 5 speed DD.
And here's what it looked like when I first got it

Exterior pics (The paint didn't stick well on the fenders, and I had masking tape on the fenders, so when I pulled it off it peeled some paint with it. She needs paint anyway :( )
