I have just registered on the forum, so thought I would say hi. Here are a couple of pics... It's a right hand drive UK model, late 1979. It has only covered 56,000 miles from new.

The UK tended not to get all the extras like the US market, so no power mirrors, no AC etc. My version even came with a mono Clarion Datsun radio from new with a single dashboard speaker.

This is a stock S130, other than the JDM fender mounted power mirrors I sourced from New Zealand last year. I also fitted a digital clock from the later 280zx as my analogue one died.

Next thing on my list is to get the paintwork sorted out, its a bit rough around the edges...

 

Oh my that is beautiful! Welcome to ZDriver!

Interesting that the gauges are Standard instead of Metric? I thought Euro Z's had KPH speedometer and metric temps...

Also check out our group on Facebook: 280ZX Drivers.

 

The UK models got MPH dials as we still have our road signs in MPH, although most of our other measures are now Metric. The rest of Europe is left hand drive as in the States, but KPH dials. Right hand drive JDM cars have KPH dials.

 

Very pretty!
