***REPOST DUE TO DEADBEAT BUYER***
Looking to sell my 97 240sx SE. It has roughly 95k miles on it (95,055 at the time of this posting, and I won't be driving it much), engine runs perfectly, very well maintained. Lots of pics here: http://www.rirnef.net/images/car/. The car has a few issues that need to be addressed:
1) The body kit was VERY poorly installed by the previous owner, and when I bought it, he neglected to tell me that it was held on with naught but zip ties, so it had fallen off. I've since bolted it in place, but there's a big crack on the front bumper, and the rear bumper has cracks on the sides where it was loosely attached to the fenders. There's no damage to the car frame, just the bumpers. They sit fine now, and have been properly secured, but would probably need to be replaced to keep you from looking like a goober driving around. The car comes with the stock sideskirts and rear bumper, all 3 pieces in good condition.
2) Due to a short in the gauge cluster, I had to buy and install a new speedometer, which shows the miles at 18X,XXX. I HAVE RECIEPTS, DOCUMENTATION, AND PICTURES PROVING THE CAR HAS 95K MILES ON IT.
3) Lastly, the car IS a salvage title. The previous owner got into an accident with it, and his insurance didn't cover the repair to the front passenger side fender, so it was wrote off as a wreck. The car has since been repaired (whole fender was replaced), the frame is straight and there's only minor damage left on the front crossbar (can see in the pics, kinda). The car drives perfectly straight, and doesn't have any issues due to the accident.
I bought the car as a daily driver, but it's become more of a project car that I don't have time or money to work on. It makes me sad, because with not much effort this car could be turned into something beautiful. There's virtually no rust anywhere on the car, nothing on the frame or underbody.
Mods:
Nismo struts/springs ($1500 installed professionally, part #5300S-RSS40US)
Exedy stage 1 clutch
Focuz Carbon Fiber Exhaust (dunno price, seems ok, some no-name brand, sounds flippin awesome though, gonna post a vid later if I can get some interest in the car.)
Unknown brand cold-air intake. (can see it in the pics)
Pioneer DEH-P6900UB Head Unit
Dual Speakers (prolly the $40 ones from best buy, sound -ok-)
Asking price: $6,000 Firm - No longer in a rush to sell. No low-ballers please, don't waste my time. You'll have a hard time finding a car WITHOUT a salvage title that's in this good condition. Lots of care and money went into fixing it up to get it the way it is.
The car runs and drives perfectly, it just has a few things that make it kind of annoying as a daily driver that I don't have the time/money to fix right now (ironically, by the time I sell this, almost everything listed here will be fixed. Only thing buyer will have left is a headlight alignment and the body kit if they want it replaced). Open to trades, mainly looking for a 300ZX non-turbo (turbo is fine too, though) or any other S14's. I love 240's so much, but this one is just out of my budget :(
I can be reached on weekdays after 5, and anytime on the weekend at 847-624-2338 (cell), or my email (sent to my phone, so I'll get it immediately) fenrir at rirnef dot net. Thanks in advance for reading a lengthy post, hope to find this car a nice home!
