Got it today

I got my first 240 today,89 coupe 5-speed.Not sure which trim level but it has power windows,moonroof,cloth seats and the hud.
The hud still works to my surprise.Its been through a hail storm unfortunatly,and right now does not run,previous owner said that it jumped time.It's even got some old school O.Z. mesh alloy wheels,thats the best part.It needs alot of work ,but the price was right,FREE.

i don't believe so, so you shouldn't have any valve problems. (don't take my word as gospel as i don't have any real proof to back that up)

Cant beat free! So how did you land that good deal? Did your parents give you the car, or did someone just not want it at all and you were the fortunate one? Please post up some pics of your car!

A buddy of mine bought it about a month ago,and dosn't have the time or money to put into it.I went over to help work on it and he ended up giving me the keys and the title.
One question how do I get pics on here,I know nothing about how to do this.So if anyone wants to giveme some detailed info on this,much appreciation will be in order.

Wow, you've got an awesome friend. To display pictures online they need to have a host. Meaning, that if they are pics that you took from your camera you will have to upload them to the internet via yahoo or whatever you choose. If it is a pic that is already on the internet, just open the pic, then right click and go to properties, copy the URL. When you post hit the IMG button once, hit paste, then hit the IMG button again. If you need to you can send me the pics and I can host them on my webpage if you want. PM me for further details.

I swear I'm going to get pics up as soon as I can.I did find out some good and bad things about the car.I was on the ground looking for drain in the gastank and I found koni yellows hiding under the rear end.So I went to the front of the car and what do I find,koni adjustables.sweet.Bad news,both chain guides were broken.The metal guide on the slack side was snapped of about four inches from the bottom,and the there is about two inches missing completly from the straight plastic guide.So I guess this means I get to drop the oil pan to look for the missing peices.
