I found a 93 240sx for $200. it has power options and its auto.

the car isn't running. the owner said it has a blown head gasket.

do you think it's a good idea to buy this car? I currently has a s14.

if i buy it. what i could do with a s13.

thanks..

If the chassis is clean and straight, then yes, you should buy it.

If it has a good body and isn't rusted out go with it.
