1981 Datsun Z-Series 280zx Description

I saw this car in a back yard and i just had to try and save it. It was purchased from the grandson of the original owner. His grandmother passed away and so her car sat for 16 years in a driveway getting sun baked in the summer and rusted in the winter. Honestly it is sad because you can tell that if this would have just been put in a garage or barn back then it would have been near mint :(
I have a copy of the original titleI have the clear title in hand75k original miles ( will be slightly higher because I can't resist taking the t-tops off and cruising it on sundays ;)the driver side power window still works great/ passenger side sound like its wants to work but stuckthe power mirrors on both sides still workt tops come in and out easily and we have had heavy rain storms and no signs of leakagehas original t top covers and pouches also original nissan wheel chocks and jack kithas both original keys
car is exactly as i found it except new battery, plugs+wires, oil change. thats it. it started and ran a bit rough but keeps getting better every time i cruise her around the neighborhood.
now let me be clear, this is a great starter project or investment car, not a mint condition car or a daily driver (although with the right work easily could be)
please ask any questions you may have. and please see pics to judge condition for yourself. remember this car is sun baked inside and out and has lots of rust spots.
feel free to test drive before purchasing.
