I Finally found and bought my 240

it needs some work.. ok quite a bit of work but the deal was right

The Back doesn't look too bad.


The Front needs some work though.

it's missing the Drivers fender. so this is her best side

Suposedly the engine runs, most of the front is the bolt on body pieces it does need a radiator, fan and some front suport tweaking and a I think the steering rod, so I guess a clip no engine and tranny, I paid $500.00 for it, oh and the Drivers seat is gone too.

Yeah I think it was a good price, even if the motor is shot, I wanted something I could build up , I think it is exactly what I was looking for in a project car.

I can say that I was looking for a manual transmission car , but had a hell of a time finding one, I finally went for the auto and plan to switch it to a manual later. but I am not sure how hard that is going to be.

Talking Congrats on your new 240!!!!


Hey nice!!! and a good deal, if you do most of the work on the car you will save a bundle, find a nissan manual and get on it....Even the back of the car looks pretty clean, the spoiler looks in great shape and thats not common on the hatchbacks.....

Good luck
