Just rescued a 79 280zx from a field. Only paid 500 for it. Wanting to get it running again. What typical areas should I inspect or parts should be replaced along the way? Also I know nothing about these cars.
Look for more rust seats and carpet out, under car also. poke at it.
Car may be unsafe to drive if rust is real bad. I f you are any were near Detroit i have everything you need to fix even a rust free roller with front damage i need to get out of here.

The driver side floor felt fine. I got in and stomped on it before I bought it. But I'll look over evrything else. Thamks for the offer but yeah i live 11 hours away in Memphis.
Thats my buddy's. Same guy I bought the car from. I tried to buy that also but its another case of no I'm gonna fix it someday. Been sitting in the same spot for 15 years.
Yes, I've heard that one so many times and 10 years later there it sits. I had to find a 2+2 280zx that was almost completely demolished before I could get the salvage yards to turn loose of a 5-speed trans!
