1983 Datsun 280ZX T Tops



Up for auction a nice clean unmolested 280ZX and if you are
looking for a RUST FREE T TOP Z car, look no futher !!
This is a 1 owner car, bought new here in Tucson Az
back in 83 and has only had 1 owner its whole life. Its been
well kept up by the original owner and in the last 10 yrs
its been more of a 2nd car and mostly only used when they
where in town which was only part of the yr.
A binder full of invoices and receipts will come with the
Z too showing almost all the work etc done over the yrs. 
Receipts from std oil changes to recent brake work and new
injectors, back stuff done 10 yrs ago.
The car shows aprox 116k which could be original
The original owner kept pretty good records too that 
come with car. And its a nice original un restored Z.
Which with a little interior work, would be a great car.
Paint is original Az faded, but for a driver, its fine.
The cars been a 2nd car for most of its life which explains
the low miles which we think are original .
Being an AZ CAR,  this is a and always has been a rust free
example what most people only wish they had for a 30 yr old Z.
The chrome on both bumpers is in amazing shape.
No pitting or rust - and they are straight on.
Check out our feedback - feel comfortable buying from
someone like us with GREAT large pics in our ads and
GREAT FEEDBACK helping You be more comfortable to decide
to bid on our cars.
Ive been driving the car around now for the last week
almost daily and it has plenty of power, starts and runs
great every time and is a fun to drive esp with the T TOPS off.

Its still a 30 yr old NON RESTORED original Z and that being said
its a great weekend car or daily driver as is, and wouldnt take
much to finish the restoration if you wanted.

DRIVETRAIN: Original EFI L6  runs great with plenty of 
power in every gear.  Non turbo model in my opinion like
this car have less problems and plenty of power on hand.
ALL stock - un molested just the way Nissan built it.
This has been adult owned and driven its whole life.
Some minor oil leaks you may expect for an older car but
nothing leaving puddles or anything.
Trans feels good and some recent work in the last few yrs
has been: NEW CLUTCH KIT w/ machined flywheel / 
All 6 Injectors / and Front brakes too.
I believe it to be the original, matching #s even motor.

INTERIOR: Front seats AND Carpet where redone in the last
few yrs and are NEW ! Some other areas are 
Showing their age from the Az sun over a 30 yr span
but fine for a daily driver and would restore easily enough
in a weekend. Interior shows nice as is, and wouldnt need alot
to finish the restoration.
But again, this is all cosmetic and you could drive the car like
this for more yrs if you wanted to.
Glass is good, but the inside glass needs a good cleaning.
Window tint is old could use replacing soon.
AC all connected and worked last summer, but quit blowing
cold this yr. Heater core started to leak a few yrs ago and
is bypassed for now. Most people in Az rarely use the heat
anyway in our cars. Car may not come with the radio shown
in pics. It will come with original radio shown in the pics
but it wont be installed, seeing as most people want to put
in their own radio / stereo preference.  So there will be a
hole where the stock radio goes when the car shows up.
I just havent had time to take the aftermarket CD player
yet. IF you want me to leave it in, email me if you win the 
car and we can work out something.

SUSPENSION: Mostly all stock original down to the OE alloy rims
Feels good, but Im sure it will need some bushings if you
looked hard. But no weird noises, rear struts are NEW KYB.
 Tires decent, but nothing special. Some brake work recent.
(We also are a tire dealer, so if you want a new set of tires
installed on the car before taking delivery, let us know what
you want and we can price it out for you, installed.)

BODY: Really nice shape for its age. A few small dents and dings
here and there, but some are so small they are hard to see
in the pics. If you look close you can see a few dents on the pass
side. 1 on the door and a crease on the RF fender.
Hard to see in the pics. Ft valance is in decent shape.
I do know the front clip was repainted in the last few yrs prob
just from sun damage and age, but not sure exactly why.
All the areas where the fenders meet the aprons look good
and dont see any signs of previous damage or accidents.
The rear license plate light is missing in the pics, but thats
how we got it. I did buy a good used one for the car, just havent
installed it yet. Ill do it this week and add a pic of it .
As is you could drive it to local car events and the car would
still draw a crowd.

Deltawing takes out second ad targeting Nissan amidst design lawsuit

Mon, 14 Jul 2014

Don Panoz isn't a guy shy away from a fight. Since December, Panoz's Deltawing Technologies has been in a lawsuit with Nissan over alleged intellectual property violations with the design of the Zeod RC. The situation went public several weeks ago when Deltawing bought an ad in The Tennessean, a paper near Nissan's US headquarters, and the industry trade, Automotive News, aimed squarely at company CEO Carlos Ghosn.
Now, Deltawing is trying the tactic a second time with an even more scathing ad in The Tennessean on July 11 and in Automotive News on July 14 that calls the Zeod's design out directly. The bulletin puts the two racecars side by side and asks readers compare their similarities.
According to Deltawing spokesperson Gary Fong, the idea for these ads started after mediation between the company and Nissan broke down earlier this year. "We were trying to bring them to settle it amicably," he said to Autoblog. When that didn't happen, Deltawing wanted to fight the misconceptions in the public about the program and lawsuit. The strategy actually worked, too. "We've seen an opinion change," said Fong. He estimates that before the advertisements the attitude was "90 percent against Panoz," but there has been more support since them.

'Car Wars' says Ford, Honda to pick up share, Fiat-Chrysler ambitions downplayed

Sat, 14 Jun 2014

Don't look for a tremendous shifts in automotive market share over the next three years because it might not be coming. That's at least according to the annual Car Wars report by John Murphy, from Bank of America Merrill Lynch Global Research.
In the report's analysis of automakers' market share from 2013 to 2017, it predicts only small changes among the major companies. Ford and Honda see the biggest positive effect with an estimated 0.5 percent increase in their shares over the next three years; to 16.2 percent and 10.3 percent respectively. On the flip side, European automakers and Nissan are expected to lose 0.2 percent each to fall to 8.3 percent and 7.8 percent each respectively. The rest of the industry is predicted to hold steady as it is now.
The biggest loser in that prediction might be Fiat-Chrysler Automobiles. The report certainly throws a wet blanket on its plan for significant gains in market share. Murphy told The Detroit News that the company's goal was "almost unattainable."

2020 Chevy Corvette Stingray vs the world: How it compares on paper

Mon, Jul 22 2019

The 2020 Chevy Corvette Stingray in its base form offers an astonishing amount of performance for the money. In fact, so impressive is the car's spec sheet that the Corvette kind of exists in two different competitive sets: one of cars priced similarly, and another with cars of similar performance and reputation. To get a feel for how it handles each of these segments, we've compiled specifications for those two sets of players. You can find the first set below, which looks at cars of roughly the same price point. Following that is a bit of analysis, and then there's a chart of cars with similar performance and reputation. And that chart will also have some analysis. Though final pricing for the Corvette hasn't been announced yet, we know the Corvette will start at less than $60,000. And as far as pricing goes, its closest competitor is the Porsche 718 Cayman, which also starts at just under $60,000. Both are mid-engined and rear-drive, but the Corvette offers an extra 195 horsepower and 190 pound-feet of torque. The Cayman does boast a curb weight of right around 3,000 pounds, so it weighs a few hundred pounds less than the Corvette, but it's likely not enough to make up for the power deficit. The Corvette's sub-3.0-second 0-60 time bears this out against the Cayman's best 4.5-second run. Impressively, though, the Cayman has more cargo space than the Corvette in a package that's nearly 10 inches shorter. The Cayman also still offers a manual option for those that prefer self-shifting. The 2020 Toyota Supra is on the cheap end of this sports car class, just crossing $50,000. It also boasts more power than the Cayman, though it's still down by 160 ponies and 105 pound-feet of torque to the C8. It's also about as roomy as the Corvette, despite being about the same size as the Cayman. Cargo space is a bit tighter. Its driving characteristics will likely differ, too as the Supra sits on a front-engine platform. It might even feel closer to a C7 Corvette in some ways. The other mid-engine entry in this price range is the 2019 Alfa Romeo 4C Spider. Its small 1.7-liter turbo inline-4 only makes 237 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, but it's also far and away the lightest of this group at 2,487 pounds. That's roughly 1,000 pounds lighter than the Corvette. It isn't as fast as the Corvette in a straight line, but that lightness surely pays dividends in cornering and braking.
