In the summer of 2008 I wrecked my 1995 Ford Probe after a long night of no sleep and rainy conditions. After looking for about 2 weeks I found a beautiful 1992 Jamaica Yellow Firebird. I drove the car around and loved it until while at a small car show i was offered a 1992 240sx coupe se for trade. So I did it. He didnt have the title yet so I held on to mine as well. Good thing because as it turned out he owed 1300 dollars on the car. So I found a buyer for the 240sx. Sold it for 3500 and paid it off. Took the remaining 2200 on a 1988 10th anniversary rx7. I drove it and loved it more than I had loved any other car that I had ever owned. Then the coolant seals blew. I traded the Rx7 back for the Firebird. I drove the firebird for a while again and then was offered a 1985 Mercury Cougar as well as a 1987 Conquest TSI. Obviously I traded. The Conquest is still sitting in Jacksboro as I write this. So Im driving a POS cougar for a while and the motor gives. I took the car to the junkyard and got 298 dollars. I took that money and purchased another 240sx coupe se. Put around 200 in it and got running smooth. I promptly traded the car for a 1990 240sx Hatchback. I soon traded that 240sx for a 1988 Supra turbo. The mainbearings were shot so I traded for a 1995 Honda Civic Hatchback. I promptly sold the Civic (I hated it) and bought another 240sx Hatch. Only having the new 240sx Hatch for 2 months or so I was offered a beautiful 1974 Datsun 260z 2+2. I was in Georgia the next day.
When I got the car it ran a little rough because the fuel system was trashed. I got a couple of 240z carbs and slapped them on and almost instantly it felt like a different car. So responsive and it felt amazing. Then my lust for power set in. I made a plan to swap in something that had never been swapped before. A Mazda Turbo Rotary. After several set backs that idea was scrapped. Then a light at the end of the tunnel. I was offered a 300zx Turbo (the full car) for 200 dollars. I jumped on it. From the car I am pulling the engine,transmission,rearend,hubs,rotors,calipers and rims to use on my car. I also will be stripping the 300 for parts to sale. Hood,fenders,lights,bumpers,some interior pieces, and the suspension.
