280Z 2str for sale

Hi guys, reluctantly have to sell my 1975 280z 2str. S30 body shape. Identical chassis wise to a 260z. Injected L28, 5 spd. R200 diff. LHD. Have some of the parts needed to convert to RHD if that's what buyer wants to do.
WOF and reg.
Time for someone else to take over and do all the things to it that I would love to do.
Already has wilwood rotors and R32 four pot calipers on the front. Motor has big cam, ported head, custom ceramic coated headers, big bore exhaust etc. Just needs some high compression pistons and triple carbs/throttle bodies, get rid of the horrible old jetronic injection and factory plenum.
I have removed the big ugly US bumpers and have some 240z bumpers to fit which I may do before selling if I have the time, otherwise they go with the car. Also have 240z grille, same story.
Pretty good rust wise, has some easy to fix bits that I know of but nothing major. Anyone who is really keen will check it out for themselves anyway. I rust-proofed the body after painting about a year ago. Very tidy looking car.
Interior a bit tired, mainly needs new carpets and seats recovered, these bits are readily available out of the states, get them while the dollar is strong!
Hoping it will sell to someone on here, otherwise will go on trademe. After $10,000.

Can't believe you haven't sold this yet...bargain if you ask me. Road legal, complete ;)

Also this zed has been in NZ for a long time if the reg # is anything to go by - my guess would be since late 76/early 77.

that's right Mike, registered in NZ in 1976.
I thought it was well priced, but who knows, shitloads of watchers on trademe but not much serious interest. The usual offers of trades etc but that's about it.
You don't need a third zed car Mike? :D
