All good things must come to an end, right? I believe it is that time for me and my beloved 240sx. I will always have a soft spot for 240's and recommend them to anyone looking for a fun, affordable car.

If you care to read the more involved story, it is attached below. The short of it is that I pulled this car out of a junk yard when I was 16 (9 years ago) as I was seeking a parts car for the other 240 I owned at the time. When I got it home and jacked it up in the garage, I noticed that the undercarriage was significantly cleaner and more free of imperfections than my current daily. After making this discovery, it was not difficult to determine which of the two I would provide with my love and attention. For the following year, my dad and I built it up with engine, trans, suspension, brakes, wheels/tires, interior, and exterior goodies. Once we had done so, we got a reconstructed title from PA on it to make it street legal. The car remained unchanged for a number of years until I graduated with my undergraduate degree and as a gift to myself, paid to have an sr20det swap done to it + supporting mods. This was done by Jon at Street Solutions. Since then, I have purchased new wheels (in pictures) and tires (less than 200 miles seen) in addition to a Q45 front brake upgrade with stainless lines, etc. I have also recently paid to have the fenders professionally rolled. As a result of the rolling, there was minor paint chipping. I have paint from the paint job years ago which I intended on using to touch up once the weather warmed up.

This car was never a daily driver and was treated with respect for its entire life under my ownership. It was never tracked, auto-x'd or drifted; only occasional spirited drives with friends.

The link below should provided you a fairly complete list of modifications done to this vehicle. Please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions or concerns.

If it comes to that, I will let you know. As of right now, I have no intention on parting it out. If it doesn't sell in a couple of weeks, I will take it off the market and re-post when it starts to get warm again.

Thank you for all of the kind words and offers, guys. The situation has not changed. I shoveled it out this past weekend and the potential buyer came for a second look. He has a few things to discuss with family and will get back to me. I expect to hear back by the end of the week.

Thank you for the kind words, all. Lots of interest but no buyer serious enough to take it home yet.

The price is still at $6,500 as indicated above.

Awesome car. When you say reconstructed title does that mean it was salvaged before? If it was, any frame damage?

Thanks

Thank you. I was looking for a parts car and found this shell in a local junk yard. Yes, the car held a salvaged title. I went through all of the necessary channels in Harrisburg to have it retitled properly.

No structual damge. It looked like a small head on collision but after adding up the cost of parts/paint/labor, I can see why the insurance company scrapped it.

The parts replaced were both front fenders, both headlight assemblies, the front bumper, the front bumper cover, and the hood.
