Welcome to ZDriver!

We have a 280zx checklist which covers all the basics (most apply to the 240z's as well): https://www.zdriver.com/forums/240z-280zxt-s30-s130-tech-tips-275/280zx-common-problems-checklist-purchase-inspection-16386/

Check for rust in wheel wells, bottoms of panels, joints, frame rails, etc.
Check the fluids to make sure the motor has been treated well.
Ask for any maintenance records & make sure the seller has a title for it.
Any car that has been sitting for more than 2 years is going to need a tune up & flush ALL fluids to get it running correctly.
