Hi everyone, I'm new here, and just got a 70 240z yesterday, that i bought based on photos.   I spend last night Googling 240z, and anything related.  

What I can't find is how rare and how much in demand are these cars?

Mine was built in 5/70, and it's vin # is HLS30-04718.  It's got the E31 heads, Engine # is 007780.  The bad, the unibody is pretty rough, The exterior and interior is really good overall.  She's been sitting for 17 years. But the engine has been turned by hand during those years.

Seems these are pretty valuable in mint condition.  

Not sure what I want to do with her.  I'm thinking she needs a bit of work on the underside.  

So if anyone want's to throw in their 2 cents, I'm all ears.  I need to learn alot on these sweet cars.

finally adding pictures, tomorrow i'll get some of all the rust

Post some pictures, or a link to the ad that had the pictures.

You might as well say it outright if you're looking to flip it.  That looks collectible and I'm not a collector.  If you're looking for a restoration project, that's a good one and this is the right site to be.

I don't know what to do?  I always look at what things are worth, and what I have to do to it.  I never want to be upside down.  I have flipped a few cars and kept a few. So I'm explore the www. to learn as much as I can.  Not going to put money in to it if not strong car market..  I hope I'm making sense, 

Browse around the site.  The link below has a some threads about cars on eBay.  Somebody will join the thread fairly quickly.  Maybe a buyer.

Except for the missing title, a good deal for < 1200.00 with spares thrown in.

Saw it on CL in the Binghamton NY area.

Bring it down South, we don't need no stinkin' titles. 

Hell, the dash and the E31 are worth more than $1,200.

That's the car!!   Couldn't resist.  I figure if she can't be rebuilt,  i can break even parting it out. But I rather see her restored and on the road.  

The interior and most body is in amazing shape considering the year. However the underside is in dire need f help. 

I'm ordering a title history from the DMV, and already registered the car.  I should havw transferable title in a month . 

I still want to know more on the market and are these rare.  Any one seen number of how many are out there ans survived the years? 

$10k to $70k range:
