izzo Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 well i heard shit tons of random info about this dime, finally found it and checked it out. no motor/trans, dunno if it has a driveline. didnt get a good look under hood. It'd be a project to get it on the road and daily driver. Guy wants 1500 for it, comes with a 300zx car complete for swap. I checked out the 300zx, its fucking clapped out! Couldn't use it as a daily i dont think till i got this dime rolling what you guys think? I dont think i should pay that much $ for what i'd have to do, plus not wanting the 300zx Quote Link to comment

bonvo Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 idk its a big price tag for a jigsaw puzzle i paid 600 for my jigsaw puzzle Quote Link to comment
danfiveten Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 if u get it for cheap its worth it, other than the flames and exhaust lol. Quote Link to comment
izzo Posted December 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 I kinda dig the dual exhaust. Said there was suspension work done on it but i dont know what yet i couldn't get inside of it, driver door has no handle, hood was latched shut Would need motor/trans, dash put in, and a bit of assembly, plus title/tabs etc. When he priced me, he didn't know what had been done or really any info, he just got that as a payment for work he did to the guys mustang Quote Link to comment
Guest kamakazi620 Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 I'd pass on this mang too much $$$$$ i know where a 510 2dr with bubble flares is that HAS a motor and tranny is MORE complete and you could probably pick it up for WAY cheeper it does have core support rust Quote Link to comment
Driftastic210 Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 nice straight body though. I dont think i would pay more than $1000 for it and thats only if the 300zx ran nice. Quote Link to comment

Guest kamakazi620 Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 Got info/pics on this ? Yeah its right outside of Mollala pics are in my head,you can call wagon Dave 503 3170647 ask about the red bubble fender from mollala its a little crusty but after you posted that car ^^^^^^^ i guess you Want a project Quote Link to comment
Rustina 510 Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 1 k for 2 none running cars is risky, why can't you look into the car in more detail, if the z car is all fucked up then what is swappable? Don't be to eager for a 510 and pay more than your willing, their is a running 510 on Seattle craigslist for 2k, buy what you want to build, not what you will settle for like I did.

Guest kamakazi620 Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 Well whats wrong with the Z???? Quote Link to comment
Rustina 510 Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 Buy a cheap truck "Datsun truck of course" to drive and just keep running, and buy a project 510 at a better price Quote Link to comment
izzo Posted December 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 Well whats wrong with the Z???? It looks like this ones little brother... guy bought it for a motor swap, dunno if it runs or not, he said if i changed the fluids and tossed in a battery i could drive it. Quote Link to comment
Rustina 510 Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 Oh hell no. Quote Link to comment
Wide14u Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 i would think twice on this Quote Link to comment
Rustina 510 Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 Do you really want 2 project cars? Quote Link to comment
izzo Posted December 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 i would think twice on this Am triple thinking it now Do you really want 2 project cars? 300zx wouldn't be a project car, its for motor/trans only which i dont want. Dime looks ok, but needs put back together. Paints chipped in some spots etc. Quote Link to comment
Guest kamakazi620 Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 dude get a truck ^^^^ what he said,Dave will take $2000 cash for this http://community.ratsun.net/topic/26955-521-for-sale/ it is NICE!!!! Quote Link to comment
Rustina 510 Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 In my opinion, the seller is trying to dump the z car off because he knows the dime has value. You can get a six cylinder l motor and tranny pretty cheap, Negotiate for the dime and leave the poor old z car alone Quote Link to comment

Has to be ext cab cuz i have kids to haul around, already have a truck. thanks tho :D In my opinion, the seller is trying to dump the z car off because he knows the dime has value. You can get a six cylinder l motor and tranny pretty cheap, Negotiate for the dime and leave the poor old z car alone Was thinking that too, hard call. Decent 2 door, but to much work for me i think.... Quote Link to comment
Rustina 510 Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 Yeah the 510 has potential, but try to get it without the z car, if he needs the cash he will sell. Quote Link to comment
FoxyRoadster Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 I'd offer like 6-800 for the body, dont need the 300zx as you should do a more bolt in swap or replace it with something that fits. Quote Link to comment
datto510 Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 Is that the one you were telling me about? It don't sound like too bad of a deal if the body is really as clean as it looks. A person could easily spend $1500 on bodywork. Does it have any motor in it now? If you need a DD now, probably not the right car. I think Dylan was looking for a car for him and his dad to fix up?
