This looks great...but out of my price range by a couple grand - if it happens to not sell/price falls, or if you were willing to lower the price and keep the rims or something, let me know,

Thanks,

Yup, I hear you about the price. When I was looking I really lucked out at getting it rust free for much less, but there was a lot of work to do to bring it to where it is today.

Consider the other vehicles you will find and if they have no rust for 4K you'll be happy, but WILL end up spending 1-2k on springs/shocks/bushings etc...

At the end of the day you will compromise on how well the car drives, until you spend the money to mechanically restore the entire car.

If you want to find out what a lowered E30 felt like when it came out of the factoy come drive mine and you'll think twice and find the money. ;)

FYI> Looking for a 91+ Nissan 300ZX non turbo manual transmission NO RUST clean body as trade + cash.

Not that I'm going to buy the car back but being the original owner I can vouch on the fact that this is one of the cleanest e30s in the city.

This car spent the majority of it's life in much farer climates and I made sure to rust proof it every year.

Judging from what's been done Cam took better care of it than I did which means it's a sweet pick up for someone.

Man I wish you had this listed 6 months ago lol.

Thanks man. Lots of work, nearly what I consider entirely perfect but time for somebody else to continue on. I get this odd thing where I work my tail off on cars get them where I want then sell em.

:)

No offense, but I think you are misusing the term "restored".

Bumpity bump. Still for sale.
