Dads82zx's 1982 Datsun 280ZX


This is my 1982 280ZX. Originally I purchased this car as a cheap commuter in July of 2000 for $800. It did not take long before I really enjoyed driving this car.

So I have decided to keep this car running and fix it up a little.

I have painted the hood scoops black. Added a rear spoiler "$ 90.00 with shipping from e-bay". The rear louvers came from a local junk yard "$20.00". All it took to make the stock rims shine was a jar of Mothers MAG & ALUMINUM POLISH
"And a lot of elbow grease!"

In the first part of this year 03 I purchased another 82 ZX and a beat up 79 parts car for $850.00.

I was able to get the red ZX running."It had a bad ignition module."
And now like his father, my son drives an 82 280ZX.
Our two ZX's are almost identical with the exception that mine has T Tops and his has the 79 hood.

Yes my son is already looking through the Motorsports catalog picking out what body kit might look the best. If his summer job at Arby's works out that is.
