Too soon? back to my roots.

[Cameron.]

I know, I know i just recently posted a thread about my 510 but i traded it last week for this gem. Drove all the way to Houston to make the trade. Much happier with this car. The parts list is intense.

goodbye 510

aaaah that's the trade of your life. i especially like the wheels and the interior.

[Cameron.]

definitely the best trade i've ever done... the wheels and the body kit alone are worth 5200 bucks...

[MeFryRice]

Finally, 240SX worth looking at. It's actually one color, has fitting body panels that aren't attached by stupid colored zip ties. I dig it. :goodjob:

[Cameron.]

haha thanks. suprisingly this was a straight trade title for title.

[Sinfix_15]

Nothing against the 510, it was a pretty cool car, but you bent that guy over on that trade.

[Sinfix_15]

haha thanks. suprisingly this was a straight trade title for title.

you sure??? no "favors" were involved in this trade?? cause you sure got the better end of it.

[d-man478]

As I told you on 240atl, I love it.

[jdm eg6]

damn:crazy: thats a good trade i like the interior:goodjob: does the ac work?

[RL...]

Damn that the deal of the century....it's so nice

[boostedb16]

did you lube up before fucking him lol. your 510 looked nice butt this has to be one of the best looking 240's i have ever seen.

[Drummerboy]

There are a few very small things I'd fix, but this thing is super clean. I'd get door sills, do something where the radio goes and maybe tweak a couple things in the engine bay to get it that much cleaner.

But i'm just being picky. Looks great. Definitely a good trade.

[alpine_aw11]

Did you at least put some lipstick on the guy before you fucked him? I know I like to look pretty before I get fucked. Other than those headlights the 240 is awesome.

[Relentless]

Thats a nice 240 nd one hell of a trade.

[Elbow]

Awww the 510 had so much potential. :(

[Cameron.]

you sure??? no "favors" were involved in this trade?? cause you sure got the better end of it.

Nope.. straight trade, and he even paid for my trip by giving me 425 bucks in gas money.


damn:crazy: thats a good trade i like the interior:goodjob: does the ac work?

It doesn't have AC but neither have my past 5 cars so I don't even care for that matter.

Already ahead of ya I'm looking for a door sill now gonna get a radio soon and yea I'm gonna put my touch on the engine bay.

I think so too rick!! Let me know if you ever want to shoot it!!!!

Hahahaha that's funny and are you talking about the projector headlights or the Silvia front end in whole?


Awww the 510 had so much potential. :(


It did but look at what I traded for...

[Sammich]

win

[Elbow]

It did but look at what I traded for...

I personally think the 510 was still wayyyyy cooler. lol

[alex14]

I would rather have a 510 than a 240, but good lord, that is a nice ass car. Very well done sir.

[allmotor-teg]

like both cars but dam that new one looks great.

[Genji-Sama]

Dang, i really liked that 510, but i mean this 240 is pretty boss too. QD is gonna roast you for this tho, lol :goodjob:

[allmotor-teg]

haha just give QD some time to come across this one lol

[Scotsman]

rear shot of the 240?

[Mr Egg Rollllll]

Nice trade up! Looks beautiful from the pics.


That 510 had a lot going for it though.

[quickdodge®]

Nothing against the 510, it was a pretty cool car, but you bent that guy over on that trade.

That guy made out like a bandit. Later, QD.

[Cameron.]

If by bandit you mean thief and if by thief you mean stolen car, its definitely not stolen lol. It was originally a guy by the name of Lucas that built it then Van, the Guy I got it from, bought it from Lucas and he had it up for trade because he remembered he was a datsun boy at heart, he saw my 510 fell in love with it and we traded crisp clean title for title

[Cameron.]

Well regardless I'm sure some people have that "too good to be true" thought in their heads lol.

[Rsporty]

Normally, I would say you should have kept the 510.
I mean, 240's are EVERYWHERE!

BUT, this 240 is not the average "rice boy drifter wannabe".

That fucker is damn near PERFECT!

Congrats, man!

[Go_Fast]

That guy made out like a bandit. Later, QD.

whats the average price for one of those datsuns nowadays?

nice trade OP i love silvia front coupes

[quickdodge®]

This is what I was implying, Cameron, lolol. That 510 is much nicer looking and a lot less common. The 240 is not bad looking, but.....



BUT, this 240 is not the average "rice boy drifter wannabe".

It's still a 240. In the end, you're the dude with the car and you're the dude that needs to keep you happy. Fuck what I say and think, lolol. You dig?


whats the average price for one of those datsuns nowadays?

Have no idea. Later, QD.

[Franco Tirador]

these them camry wheels right? or look-a-likes?

[Elbow]

these them camry wheels right? or look-a-likes?

Yes they're Camry wheels.

[Cameron.]

these them camry wheels right? or look-a-likes?


Yes they're Camry wheels.

wat?

[Sinfix_15]

That guy made out like a bandit. Later, QD.

240 would sell for more than the 510. 510 just harder to find.

[dc2gs]

Man im not that big with 240s but this is one bad ass 240!!! You got one hell of a deal. Good job man!

[Sinfix_15]

Man im not that big with 240s but this is one bad ass 240!!! You got one hell of a deal. Good job man!

one thing that greatly confuses me about this thread is how many people say.....

"i usually dont like 240s, but that 240 looks good"

It's not like this 240 was on overhauling or somethin, its a clean 240 with just a couple of body mods. Its basically a clean stock 240 body with a front and rear bumper....... if you dont usually like 240s, you shouldnt like this 240. Maybe you people actually do like 240s, you're just brainwashed by the haters.

[Rsporty]

I've been in love with 240's since helping a buddy do an SR swap in his, way back in '98.
The body shape! The ergonomics of the interior! The potential!
Especially the coupe.
I just hate that most, nowadays, look like shit because it's become the "accepted norm" for them to look beat up and "drifted out".
This one is BEAUTIFUL, though.
AND BTW, Sinfix, the one in your sig is pretty fucking sweet, too!

Gotta love 510's, too, though!

[quickdodge®]

I'm not speaking monetarily.

I agree here, a bit. You either like something or you don't. Me? I've never been a 240 "fanboi." Never liked them. I'll compliment a nice one if I seeit (which this one is), but that's about it. Later, QD.

[CSquared]

For the straight up trade plus gas money that dude must have been a baller motherfucker just tired of his project. I'd have to see the car in person to say for sure but props for the good looking trade.

[Humphrizzle]

I personally think the 510 was still wayyyyy cooler. lol

cooler, but if you would choose the 510 over that 240, that is very dumb.

[quickdodge®]

No way, Hump, lolol. Later, QD.

[Cameron.]

I honestly didn't even want to get rid of the 510 I had it forsale when it stopped running but after I rebuilt the motor and did the dual side drafts I fell in love with it but the guy with the 240 bumped my thread from the dead and I only traded for sheer monetary value the datsun was a 6 grand car and that's all it would have ever been since I had no plans of going crazy on it and making it a 20000 dollar restomod. But I do miss the little guy but I'm happy I got something more valuable in my eyes

[DoriDori]

Yeah, you made out really well on that deal! Exterior and stats look great!

Never said i didnt like 240s, all i said was im not big with them. Im a honda guy and most 240s i see are all beat up or just straight ugly. This one is really clean and very simple. This is probably the cleanest 240 i have seen.
