Sounds like your close to my dad too =P My dad bought a '78 280Z in 1981. I wanna say it had like 60k miles on it. He drove it until it had about 180k. I then drove it from 180-230k or so as it was my first car for the most part (at this point he had a 350z).

It definitely did spark my interest in Z's =)

Here is a picture of it. It could definitely use a paint job:
