Barn Find Datsun 280z – First Wash in 44 Years!

This is my all time favourite barn find car wash YouTube video.  You may have already seen this, but just in case you missed it….

A 1976 Datsun 280Z that had been kept in a garage for over 44 years gets the full valet treatment.  Despite the dust and dirt that had accumulated on the outside the interior was immaculate and had even retained its ‘New Car Smell’.

Ammo NYC have created a great video here that covers the Car’s back story, it’s original factory features as well as a detailed breakdown of the valeting process.  As for the end result…spoiler alert – it’s stunning!
