  1. had a blast! didnt get my bumper or ZG flares....but got my mudflaps sold! Glad to see a great turnout! :D
  2. Pics on Page 22 of 'Pics of your Z!'
  3. @ Npdavies: I wanna go witht the stock bumper, im still searching for one. >.< i got a rear bumper, but it needs a lil work. haha. and @280: Yeah, i did! :D It has a salvage, but ive seen the damage, and its not bad at all. its in leagues better shape than any other S30 ive owned. I didnt care much for the paint job when i first saw the ad, but as the prospect of buying it grew, so did my liking for the paint. lol. Of course, i wanna do the whole Devil Z treatment. :) but the drivetrain is gonna be different....no V8, but itll still haul the mail. youll see.....
  4. My New baby! :D My Two girls. <3 Got Bored, so i made it on Forza 4. :P
  5. Wow. Old thread, but i did sell the 240, non-running, for 2,100. The 280 was Dailyed, and it was extremely reliable. Until the old (already-on-its-way-out) trans died. All in all, i replaced the trans, diff bushing, all fluids, new tires, and threw on an intake and cut off the muffler. :P it was a great daily until i found another 71 240Z. I had promised myself that id get another. So i put a deposit down, got the car, sold the ZX and paid off the 240. Ive been dailying it for about 3 months now, without a problem! Did a few things here and there, and im in LOVE! Thanks for the input you all gave! :) pics up soon.....

  7. ill post a pic soon. haha. and i dont even have a GF. i just make shit pay. :P
  8. well, tbh, like HRH said, as much as it hurts, im selling the 240.....he's right, so....2,500 OBO. :/ and i owe Dad 2k....he got me the 240 for 2k, i had a 1977 280Z, then i sold it for 1k. paid that to Dad, found the 280ZX, and borrowed back the money (1k) back to get that. so now its back up to 2k.
  9. Yeah.....i mean, i figure i can get another 240 later on in life, i mean, realistically, theyre not going way up there in price, right? its either this or an 83 280ZX thats in good shape. what would you keep? lol. its still up for sale and all....
  10. well, if i put either up for sale, its 2.5k. id get 2.5k for the 280 alot sooner than the 240.
  11. Im stuck right now. i owe my Dad 2k for helping me pick up the 240Z that i have. I sold a 280Z a while back and gave him the 1k that i got. then, my trucks trans. went out, and i needed a reliable, gas-saving DD. i stumbled upon the 280ZX when getting parts for the 240. the guy took good care of it, it get looks and compliments all the time, and its such a blast to drive, and the A/C works! (which is a must in the desert) so, im stuck as of now because im sick of this looming debt i owe to my Dad. the ZX is a great DD, and i have a plan of how to build it, and its pretty mild. just headlight covers, wheels, tires, BRE spoiler, and mild engine stuff. I Love the 280 because its been so reliable so far, its comfortable, its a blast to drive, and the looks grew on me. its sexy! The 240 is a car that ive wanted my whole life. i love the look of it, its just raw, and i mean, how could you not love the look and feel of it! its got a timing issue, so im having trouble getting it to run. Its either, Keep the 280 and have a fun, A/C equipped, DD that i can do mods to over time and still drive it, or keep the 240, but put more work into it but drive a car that is essentially my dream car.....i know it can be just as much fun as the 280, but itll take more money to get there....gah. im stuck between these two.....help a fellow Z lover?
  12. Sorry. 2,500 OBO. im really up in the air on getting rid of it....:(
