I have for sale a 1995 240sx. the odometer reads about 185k but i put in a fresher (110-120k) motor 2 summers ago. I bought this car as yet another project but i was never able to give it the time and attention it deserved.
THIS IS NOT THE CAR YOU WANT TO BUY IF YOUR LOOKING FOR A MINT TURN-KEY PROJECT
i swapped in the newer motor after the previous owner ignored the timing chain rattle and blew his block. after i swapped in a newer motor the car pretty much sat in my driveway, only being driven on errands once in a while. im always honest when selling things ( many people have bought from me and would agree) so ill let the pics do the talking:

Its hard to tell in the photo but i found a very close paint match to the original. its not perfect but looks better than primer

the rust is easy to see. but i outlined the non-factory paint.

the passenger side kick panel appears to be only surface rust. im not a body man so i dont know for sure. i could take better pics if anyone wants

the driver side kick panel is shot. i plugged it with bondo and some rust repelant just to stop the damage. There was also a bit of rust on the inside of the wheel well. again, im not a body man, so its probably not as pretty as it looks in the photo

Nope, the green valve cover doesnt make it faster. i was removing the timing chain pieces at the same time my lil bro was trying to paint his bike. hence, i have a green valve cover
I drive this car to work everyday. the only 2 issues it has is: the power steering belt squels a bit, and the brakes need some work. they will and do stop the car but it takes putting the pedal to the floor. i figure its eiter the brake cylinder or the booster. either way, not catastrpohic
