Testing the waters 83 280zxt

I have a black 83 280zx with a 81 turbo swap in it. The car has 108k original miles, ttops and the body and has the normal rust on the pans/wheel wells.

The car runs fine & is all put together.. but while replacing the manifold gasket I noticed the prior owner of the engine broke a manifold bolt off on the far upper left bolt under the thermostat and broke a easy out in it, as I was unable to drill through the bolt.

I'm completely out of patience with this car and don't desire to drop another dime in it..

How much are these worth now & what should I charge? It will most likely come with the original n/a motor that came with it, which runs perfectly fine too.

might wanna add that it is a 2+2 but for price 0-1500 Depends who wants to buy it. You might have to end up taking offers. Not alot of people want a 2+2 but it does have a turbo swap so that is a plus. But overall from the pics interior looks good. You have any shots of the rust and underneath? what about suspension is it all stock (ex: still old bushings)?

Everything is still bone stock short of the engine, boost controller, exhaust with a flowmaster muffler, boost gauge and stereo.

The pans are still solid, but will definitely need to be cut out and replaced at some point if a full restoration is done.

It Also has a 3 inch to 2 1/2 exhaust ran on it, but the weld job is painfully messy from the catback on. Whoever did it needs kicked in the *****, but it's still solid, doesn't leak and sounds nice.

You're missing pics of the most important part of the car... the engine bay!


Oh... and pics of the boost controller, pics of the exhaust, pics of the underside...
