I bought this car intending to build a challenge car, but it's not going to happen for me this year.  I also don't want it sitting around my house for another year while I work on my current project.  So I am looking to get what I have in to this car.  located in Chicago suburbs.

The important details are. 1974 Datsun 260z. The car was auto, but the trans is gone.  Rear brakes/hubs are frozen. Comes with a set of steel wheels, and a set of chrome wheels, but no tires! The car is on jack stands, since it can't roll anyway.  I have a clean title in my name. It's rusty, but not scary rusty.

Guys luck selling. That's a great price, even with it's issues.

 

I have a 4 speed trans in Detroit if someone gets this, for cheap af since that seems to be going rate.

Do shipping costs factor into challenge budget? Asking for a friend

That's actually a very good question. It specifically says in the rules that shipping costs count for parts, but does not specify the car itself. However I would imagine it does.

I *think* that if you go retrieve it, costs don't count. But that shipping does/would.

It's been a few years since I read the rules.
