rust

A 240zx that has serious rust issues? Welcome to the site, prepare to get flamed.

do you know how to weld?

Some rust does not tell us a lot. Some rust for me will not mean the same as "some rust" to you.

Honestly, for a rusty car, not worth more than a couple hundred, up to 6 or 7 if the interior's in great shape and she runs well. You can transfer parts to a good shell you buy somewhere else.

Otherwise, it will cost a small fortune and you're better off buying one that is in good shape for a bit more out of the southern US and driving it home.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!

Unless it has $850 of usable parts.

An 82 240ZX? Isn't that the ultra rare special edition? **** yea, jump on it before somebody else snatches it out from under you!

Ok so I was a little vague it has a ton of rust on the bottom like I can see threw the floor in some spots. As for the interior it has cracked seats and a badly cracked dash.

RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!

For $3650 more you could have a no rust Turbo one with 58k on it. HINT I am selling one....

The first datsun I bought was an 81 zx that I got for $200, it was intended to be a project but ended up being a royal pain. It was just as you described but I got $800 worth of parts out of it for my other shell. If I was you i'd run away as fast as I could and take lineC's advice. I took a parts car off his hands a while back & with $1,000 worth of parts/material am now driving it but said car was not a total rust bucket.

If you really really really want it that bad find one in a junkyard look at the pannels conditions where its rusted the worst.

condition of which panel?
