so i bought a 5spd 1990 240 coupe for 1500 like a month agowith a stock ka motor


the good -

new alternator, fuel pump, fuel filter fairly new battery,
starter, has decent rims , runs pretty well , has exhaust, intake
interior isnt too bad, brakes and rotors in good condition

the bad -

body has different color side panels and bumper
rear rockerpanels on both sides have rust but it isnt that bad

rear quarterpanel near wheelwell is rusted bot also not that bad
the body has 223xxx miles on it but the motor and tranny was supposedly swapped out and has around 85,xxx at the most says the seller i bought it from it also looks like it has some minor rust on the under carriage also

how much do you think i would get if i were to sell this, i origionally bought it to make a project but im short on cash.

ill try to post some pics also later

 

if u need money sell it

if its not a money issue it doesnt sound that bad

13's will always be able to be found again

 

if you're short on money, sell it.

240's are worse than having a girlfriend. it just sucks the money right out of you. it sucks up money that you didnt even know you had.

 

Thats cars in general though. The 240 is the cheapest car I've actually ever owned. I spent 1500 in the first month I had my Fc and it didnt take me very far. I've only spent about 400-500 total on the 240 and I feel much more accomplised lol. 1500 can take you pretty far with an s-chassis.

If you are really strapped for cash then get rid of it. There is no room for hobbies when you are struggling. Otherwise keep it and fix it and a few years down the road you might be glad you did.

 

thanks guys yeah i think im gonna sell it and try to pick another one up when i have some extra cash, hopefully i can get what i paid for it

 

lol you can do it!

 

thanks lol im gonna sell it i just need the cash right now

 

^good call
