thanks guys.. and no the honda is not mine it was another trade in. lol
i will keep it stock except for the suspesion and wheels. I have a set of S-tune suspension and a set of lmgt4. I will install as soon as i do the 5 lug conversion.

I sold a 92 coupe with 28xxxx miles on it last year and it got totaled about 3 months later. I wish I still had that car.

I just wanna know how much you paid for it.

^Since he works at a dealer and it was a trade in, it was probably less than a grand.
I had the chance to buy a '96 SE, 5speed with all the goodies through the dealer I used to work at for 1500 bucks. They only paid the customer 1200 for it.

FYI that is a 92-95 civic coupe

Too bad it had 2,000 more miles than when I got my Chuki.

Leave this car alone in original stock condition. It will probably get more looks the way it is than modded out. Go buy another one to fuck with.
soreballz
04-30-2009, 06:43 PM
^Seriously, Ray? Its a stock ass pignose fastback. Clean or not, who gives a fuck it. Mod it, crash it, trash it. Its a 240SX, for shit's sake. lol

Trust me Mr. SOREBALLZ....A bone stock 510 is almost worth more than some that are all modded out right now.

A bone stock 510 is pretty damn rare and a lot more collectible than a bone stock 240sx.
In the end though Congrats to Mel for scoring a clean car with amazingly low miles.

A 510 isn't a mass-produced pignose fastback. :s101:

Absolutely. Keep it in a garage and keep the miles low. This will be worth something one day, plus you can always take it out and enjoy the clean ride. Take it to some local car shows.
This find is very rare, don't ruin it!!!!

I wish you were talking about this Mel. :wtc:
Nice find though. It's good to see they are still out there.

I still say it's just a 240.
Shit, I bought another S13 to finish messing with my 40k mile one.
Guess what? My other S-chassis has 60k miles.
:rofl:
I'm not about to buy ANOTHER car so I can keep the miles low on both my S-chassis.
After you get over the low mileage deal, you just have a really clean S-chassis.
Drive it. Fuck with it.
Just make sure you actually take care of it.

nice, my 90 has 86k and i thought that was young :)
I installed the nismo S-tune suspension. Nice solid ride, I like it. I will post pics soon.

some people just dont get it
soreballz, stop being an idiot. a 510 was never much of anything worth collecting, and now some of these datsuns are. it doesnt matter if its mass produced or not, what matters is how many are left on the road and in a valuable condition worthy of buying. if the demand is there, its worth it.
with that said, an odometer reading is pretty important... but overall condition is more important. i can vouch hand-down for mel's car as i saw it up-close and personal, and its in pretty immaculate shape.. and im talking undercarriage and everything.
personally, i think the car should be driven not stored. cars that are stored just dont make sense, unless we're talking about a car like a mclaren f1 with a high maintenance fee in terms of run-time. some cars are just too expensive to drive.
we'll see what pans out for mister melvin, will he mod it.. and if so, what parts will he chose? :-) haha i've already given him the best advice, chose the right parts. and good choice in buying my R32 GTR seats... cant go wrong with those!
