1970 240Z HLS30- 06026 For Sale (original)
I like to see the win-win. If the car is worth 15k and he sells it for 13k great, everybody is happy. If the car is worth 15k and he sells it for 8k he took a 47% hit. One's really happy and one got taken advantage of. If it was Jai selling Redbird and she offered her car at a 50% discount would we be supportive of somebody taking advantage of her ignorance. Would we fault her for re-evlauating since she lives on limited means and the difference in cash would be huge to her....

Why use a Z car as a sign of danger in an add?
Oh, I think the run down van with tinted windows is much scarier...

1970 240Z HLS30- 06026 For Sale (original)
I have sort of stayed out of this discussion but I tend to agree with @rdefabri if someone is ignorant of a fair price and then reconsiders their asking price, I don't hold that against them. Why should they hurt their family for a complete stranger, that may or may not complete the sale? The OP mentioned something about college tuition at some point. Also I take some of the "I'll take it" like I view everything on the internet; not a done deal until it's a done deal. People back out on Ebay sellers all the time after they agree to buy a car and that's with Ebay to try to help prevent that. What is the difference between a seller not completing a sale versus taking advantage of a sellers ignorance to the tune of 50-80%? To me it is merely perspective...

Wideband O2 Sensor
Good luck with vise grips. Oxygen sensors can become very stubborn from heat and sometimes rust. They make special wrenches for them but you can probably come up with something better. I would try open/ boxed end wrenches or even a large adjustable wrench. Then would go to channel locks before I went to vise grips, leverage is your friend...

Looking for advice on replacing all the hard brake lines
I believe they are all double flair. I think that is the way I made mine, but hopefully someone can confirm that

240z: s2000 project
240+ HP and 160 FtLbs of torque aught to push a Z chassis around pretty well. I would think it would have a different feel more HP, less torque...

All you can carry for 59.99
I have mixed emotions about this. I am a big "personal responsibility" guy but the management had to know that poor desperate people would make questionable decisions. I think as a business owner I would feel really bad if someone ruined their body for $60....
