Hi guys. I'm really pleased to se that a zx forum is still alive. Last week i purchased a 81 280zx 2+2. And I've gone completely crazy ordering stuff from ebay and different places. The car is pretty good, some rust in different places. The odometer shows 190k km , and the engine sounds like a cat purring. I love it. I have earlier been a owner of two z32's one us spec and one euro spec (2+2) , but this will be much better since its a na and I plan to use it only as a cruiser.

Some pictures

Welcome to the forum! Nice looking car

I thought the euro spec didn't have the bumperettes on the bumpers?

I have no clue... I found the decal inside the trunk, and some tape was left on the trunk.. So I just added a new fixer and put it back where it was..
