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

This 1982 Datsun 280ZX spent time in Colorado and Arizona before being purchased by the current owner in Tennessee in May 2014. It now has 62k miles, and power is from a 2.8-liter inline-six paired with a five-speed manual transmission. The car is finished in two-tone blue and silver over a matching interior, and features include air conditioning, automatic climate control, and power windows. Work performed during current ownership is said to have included the installation of a replacement battery and clutch cylinders. This S130 is now offered on behalf of the owner with an owner’s manual, a clean Carfax report, and a clean Tennessee title.

The two-spoke steering wheel frames an 85-mph speedometer, a 7k-rpm tachometer, and water temperature and fuel level gauges, the latter of which is said to work intermittently. The six-digit odometer shows 62k miles, less than 500 of which were added by the current owner.

The fuel-injected 2.8L L28E inline-six produced a factory-rated 145 horsepower, which is sent to the rear wheels through a five-speed manual transmission. Work performed during current ownership is said to have included the installation of replacement clutch cylinders, and a replacement battery was recently installed.
