Vehicle History: I acquired this 1976 280Z coupe 3 years ago. It had 33k miles on it at that time, and it was wholly unmolested and very well preserved. I was given documented history starting with its second owner. This person bought the car used in 1978 with 20,100 miles, and he kept the car until his death in 2014. The owner’s step-son kept it for another year or two himself. When I got the car, each fender had a small patch of rust forming, and the paint finish was blemished around the fuel filler. All else was pristine and factory original. After much consideration, I decided to give the car a high quality repaint in the factory color. I’m very pleased with the result. I also refurbished the factory wheel covers myself. I was originally told the car lived its entire life in Ohio. However, while cleaning I found a VA State Police inspection tag under the passenger seat dated 11/75… see attached photo. So apparently the first owner traveled across state lines at some point. It’s a cool piece of history that I will keep with the car. What I love most about the car is its all original mint interior… it even smells like a new car. It truly is a time machine, and the purchase was a dream-come-true for me. The car now has 36k miles and I love to drive it… I will continue to do so carefully and sparingly, and it will remain in its present, unmodified state!

It is now red and completely restored but has been sitting in my shed for about 10 years under a cover. Zero cracks in original dash and door skins are original with no blemishes. Carpet was replaced as were the seat covers. Gas tank was acid cleaned and POR15 treated. Plan is to work to get it rolling again now that my young boys are getting a little older.
