P.S.

Here's some pictures of a 280 ZZZAP arcade game I ran across in my research:

I can remember playing this game in the arcades. But more interestingly, if you google the term 'ROM emulator' and specifically look for a MAME emulator, you can find the ROM for this game and play it in emulation. It's out there and freely available.

Well, I finally got back to the shop and stared working on it.

The car has indeed been repainted. It's a very similar color and they did a pretty good job, so i hadnt noticed at first.

Looks like I wont ever know, unless I'm able to find the previous owners.

It does seem strange to me that the car sold used in 1979 for $7,700.

Play one of the mpegs in this link. This was Datsun's ad back in the day and may help to explain that.

Was an Option..I purchased my Code 411 1978 280z out of the show room at the Dealer. Came with the Hatch Louver, 2dr, 5 speed manual - The Zzapp (stripping) was an option. Gracey

That is pretty much what the thread you revived from two years ago says. And I'm sure you mean 1977 not 1978 if you're talking about a ZZZap.

Since the thread is revived ...

I recently stumbled across a business that is selling the ZZZap decal set. It's a bit pricey, but it looks like they did a good job. I wish I could provide a link, but honestly I can't remember where I saw it.

I am the supplier for the decal set, and there are only 4 sets left.

A couple of people bought 2 sets for their back up.

I do not know if I am going to reproduce them any more since it costs so much to make them in a lot, and it also takes a lot of TLC to store them. We never roll them or fold them even for shipping, beacuse Ultra thin UV protective clear film might get wrincked if you do.
