dirtyirby Posted August 15, 2012 Share #1 Posted August 15, 2012 I recently acquired a 1977 280z from the grandson of the original owner. It is an Arizona car and lived there its whole life. It was bought originally in 1977 at Thoroughbred Datsun (now Nissan) and came with quite a few dealer options, this interior being one of them. Has anyone seen anything like this in a Z car? I will be posting full pics of the car soon. I am a new member on here, any info would be great. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grantf Posted August 15, 2012 Share #3 Posted August 15, 2012 (edited) Yikes! But really, I have never seen that before. If you would be so kind as to post more pictures? I am on the hunt for pictures of original carpet for my 77. Edited August 15, 2012 by grantf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcb280z Posted August 16, 2012 Share #4 Posted August 16, 2012 (edited) I had a hide-a-bed once in the early 80's with that same upholstery Do post more pics of the car. It looks like it was taken care of from the looks of the one pic. Edited August 16, 2012 by rcb280z Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this funk pasted on your headliner too? Edited August 16, 2012 by hr369 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dirtyirby Posted August 16, 2012 Author Share #7 Posted August 16, 2012 Thanks, no the headliner is black fortunately, although I do love the plaid seats and door panels I wouldnt want that for my headliner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff G 78 Posted August 16, 2012 Share #8 Posted August 16, 2012 All of the cloth insert seats I've seen have been in AZ cars. I think the black vinyl cooked enough legs that somebody started doing cloth retrofits. It was either done new by the dealer, or the sun killed the original vinyl on the doors and seats and someone had it redone at an upholstery shop . I bought one 240 that had something similar, but with a SouthWest pattern. It was nasty looking. I probably have old film pics somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
