Description for Datsun Z-Series 1979

1979 Datsun 280ZX Turbo Project CarCar has been sitting for a number of years and is a project that was never completed by the previous owner.

CHASSIS is solid with just a few rust issues to deal with - main one is the left rear frame rail corner - it rusted out from water sitting in it and that end part of the rail needs to be redone. There's some minor rust through at the front of both rocker panel pinch welds and one edge is soft on the right frame rail near the firewall where the jack stand in the picture is located. Otherwise very solid and clean, the usual rust areas - spare tire well, rocker panels, frame rails, shock towers, floor pans, rear subframe mounts are in really good shape. This car is NOT a rot box and can be fixed up with a reasonable amount of work
