This Datsun 280ZX got away, but there are more like it here.

This 1979 Datsun 280ZX was purchased by the current owner in March 2019 and now shows 64k miles. The car is finished in Champagne Metallic over tan cloth and vinyl and is powered by a 2.8-liter inline-six paired with a five-speed manual transmission. Equipment includes 14″ aluminum alloy wheels, power-adjustable side mirrors, power windows, air conditioning, cruise control, and a cassette stereo. Service in 2023 included replacing the clutch, master brake cylinder, and fuel pump. This S130 280ZX is offered on dealer consignment with service records and a clean Massachusetts title.
