1978 Nissan 280Z 2+2 Coupe 2-Door

Hi folks, it's time to say so long to this 40-year old beauty...here's the story:
My son bought this car in CA, after graduating high school (2013). After realizing that the upkeep, insurance, maintenance, etc. on 2 x cars was a bit much for a 19-year old, good old "dad" bailed him out and bought the car from him, and had it shipped to TN where we live (2014).
The car was a 1-owner, so we are the 2nd owners of this car. It was in good mechanical condition, but the paint was faded and there was some minor rust on the rocker panels. So, I had all that fixed by a professional automotive restoration outfit here in Memphis, TN. We added the lower front air dam before the re-shoot, and made some minor changes like removing the side-reflectors and radio antenna to give it a cleaner look. The paint color is original, #411. We also replaced the tires (not the wheels, they are in excellent condition), battery, radio, and front seat covers. We didn't try and do too much, just give her a "face-lift" and keep her looking as original as possible.
Mileage (as of today 9/17/2017): 80,628 original miles.
Air Conditioning: I don't know if it has it or not. The fan doesn't blow "cold", but it could just be out of refrigerant. There is a sticker under the hood (see pics) that leads me to believe it DOES have AC, for what it's worth.
4-Speed Manual Transmission
This car is a real "head-turner" wherever she goes, and she's always kept indoors. Here's 3 x walk-around videos that I took on 09/17/2017 and posted on YouTube:

I hate seeing her sit in the garage...she needs a good home!
