Hey guys it's a sad day. My beauty is up for sale.

1980 280zx

 

Another one bites the dust. How come everytime we get a new member two more people decide to sell their Z? No offense cruiser, you gotta do what you gotta do. Sounds like a hell of a deal if aussie to yanks conversion is about what I think it is. Too bad you're in Australia though, it's hard to find Z's that fit your description up here. Good luck with the sell.

 

I'd like a RHD 280ZX.

 

i would love to see some pics my friend

 

Is Australia RHD? That make for an easy JDM clone. Well I guess technically since it's RHD it wouldn't really be a clone then would it? I drove a right hand drive Bluebird once, it was a little weird getting used to shifting with my left hand but once I got over that it wasn't any different. Until I parked it in Old town which only has parking along the street and got it's fair share of traffic. Try pulling out from in front of a giant SUV when you're sitting on the RH side of SOMEONE ELSE RARE CLASSIC CAR WITH NO LEFT SIDE MIRROR!!!!! I was so scared someone was going to clip me as I was pulling out and I'd be responsible for it, UGH. I pulled someone off the sidewalk and had them wave me out when the coast was clear. That day still haunts me everytime I think about building a RHD conversion.

 

Oh and BigBird it's pretty. He's got a pic in his gallery but I think I remember seeing some other pics in post before. But it's a really nice looking car.

 

MY GIRL IT GOING TO au AT THE END OF THE YEAR .....
MABE SHE COULD BRING ME BACK ONE ................

 

Your girl always goes to Austrailia. What's she doing over there so much?

 

Yeah there is a pic in my gallery but since then i have changed the wheels again :P but still 17's just classier looking ones. ill get pics soon k? cheers.

 

haha thats funny!! My wife is always pointing out cars with only one side mirror (i.e. "Look at that Tercel!! It only has one mirror!!")

 

Yeah my Saturn didn't come with a right hand mirror brand new. Of course it didn't come with AC or power windows, or Power steering either. It had one of those tape players though. I don't know if any of you remember what those look like or not. Pretty retro if you ask me

 

Still up for grabs guys. putting it in the local rag this w end
