Here's my "new to me" 89' 240 (and my first attempt at posting a picture ) I bought it for 300 bucks with 159,000 miles.

 

it look's good, why so cheap? does it run?

 

Yea, real cheap. Looks pretty good

 

Yes it runs, but it needs new rings. I haven't decided whether to go with an engine swap or just keep the current motor. It will be on the road soon hopefully .

 

whaaat....dude...i wish i can get a car that cheap!!!




i smell the SR20DET SWAP

 

Yeah I couldn't believe I got him to drop the price so much. The next day he said he got a call from a guy who had came to look at it before and he offered him $1500 for it, so yeah, I got a steal.

 

wow i thought i got a good deal ($1,000) with the same miledge, and bad paint. but gopeds cost more than $300.00 around here, you did get a steal.

Thats tight, good luck with fixin it.

Thanks. I do live in central ny where rust is a problem with older cars. But the only rust on this car was the old hatch, which I replaced with a newer one as soon as I got the car. The rust was where the previous owner removed the foam spoiler, and I have to replace the piece in between the tail lights. Here's a pic of the nasty old hatch, but it's now replaced.

 

that hatch is

hope to see some more pics of it soon, and keep us posted.

 

dayyyaaam... I thought my rust damage was bad until i looked at yours. Is there rust in the trunk where the spare tire is? I fixed my rust there last week with bondo and some sprary paint. all for under 20 bux.

 

Nice deal dude

 

Yes there was a little bit inside the hatch under the spare but I cleaned that up nice and used the bondo just how you did, it worked great. Now i'm trying the sleepy eyes thing, I just read in another post that you can cut the brown wire under the button and get the same effect? Someobne please clarify that so I don't just go cutting wires for no reason. Thanks for the replies guys.

 

no you just have to ajust the spiner by the light it will move them

 

I thought I got a steal for my s-13 with 119K miles. I paid 1600 for it. Of course, repais cost more than the car itself, needed to get a new engine cause the previous owner cracked it. That and I had to put in a new cooling system. Grrr... But dang, that hatch is messed up sickly.

 

got my S14 zenki for 1g if it makes you happy
