1981 Datsun 280ZX zx review from North America
"The is a classic body style/car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I bought this aw some 280zx for a great price, did some minor body work on it, headlight covers, and a paint job. Bumpers painted and interior cleaned up pretty good. The cruise light comes on, but when you try to set the cruise it doesn't set. Anyone have any suggestions??? And specifically how to repair this?
It seems to be in excellent condition other than some rear seat damage to the top edge. I am looking for a right rear tail light, and info on repairing this cruise control.
General comments?
This car handles like new, very tight steering and a pleasure to drive. Takes me back to when I was 20 years old driving my 1977 280z.
