WTB: running 280zxt - body condition doesn't matter

hey everybody,

I'm new here, but like you all, I love Z's. My friend has a '72 240z, and now I want in on the action.

I am looking for a running 280zx turbo that runs. I want to do an engine swap and all its components. This means the body can be made of rust for all I care haha. I just need the connected engine in a running car. I live in New Jersey.

If you guys have one, know of one, or know where I can get one, your help is greatly appreciated. Thank you so much.

Bleach... the red turbo car will be up for sale again for about as soon as the blue one back on the road. It would drive to Jersey.

DiceSetter has aquired a turbo car as a parts car. I am temporarily storing it on my property so when he has decided on what to do with it and on a price for parts I'll let you know.
