My brother is getting ready to begin is project car, and wants a old 240 base. These used to be pretty cheap as rollers, but are strangley a bit expensive. Don't need engine or trans at all.

All around street performance, not too crazy in any one direction. 240 base, but made purty, and VG30ET/5spd.

I have a 240Z project car in my garage. I've owned it since 1979.

I would like to make my Z similar to this one, but I would use a LSA.

15 grand for an LSA or something, ridonkulous. Cool video though, I'll take a ride in your LSA 240 when it's complete.

Nope. But that's kind of the range I'm hping for. Decent condition body, straight chassis.
