Fairlady NEED HELP ASAP

Im new to 280's and most of the nissan family in general. Heres the thing, i may have a chance to buy a '79 Datsun 280z Fairlady (right hand drive) for really cheap. Exterior is good its got 62k miles on it, and im goin to test drive it on the 20th (tommorow). Hes asking 2500$ and that has me nervous because it seems cheap. Is it a deal? What kinda problesm could i have, Oh ya and its auto, i really wanted stick but maybe i could do the tranny swap later sometime.

Look for electrical and fuel system problems. I'm on my second Z and both have had those problems. But even then, I would pay that much for a right hand drive fairlady.

Yeah...ditto. Snag it regardless. We can help with everything else. Even if it has a little rust, not a major problem.

Nice find!!! Pics????
