98 240sx auto dilema.... woth a converison?

i found a 98 240sx with 135k for about $4500..... the only bad thing is that its an auto. im wondering if it would be worth it, to buy it and do a manual conversion


there is nothing else wrong with it and its fully loaded, im going to look at it today



what you guys think?

If that's your preference and you can't find a manual that's as good of a deal fine, also if your doing an engine swap in the future it doesn't matter what tranny's gonna be in it right now.

don't buy that, not worth it, just pm me with the sellers info though would ya...j/k...for that price I would scoop it up, auto to manual conversion if you source the parts right and do the labor yourself will only be around a couple hundred dollars.

i stopped at the dealer and looked at it and its very nice! it has side skirts...... and there is a little rust on the driver side door on the edge form the ownder hitting ****, and a little rust crawled under the paint(easy fix). there is a scrathc on the windshield from a bad wiper blade or something. those are the only two things wrong with it. the interior is very nice to

im going to take it for a test drive and work out a deal for it tomorrow. WISH ME LUCK!!
