wassup guys. im new to the site and am very impressed. i am from Long island NY and moved to charlotte nc about four years ago. i recently won an auction for a 240 pignose hatch(will be daily driver/ show car) in boston and my uncle is takin care of the rust spots and paint at his shop in NY. i am also looking into buying a 1998 240 wit sum serious side damage strictly for drifting and track racing(street racing isnt good) Anybody know a good collision repair guy. And also i have a question: Would you need any type of insurance for a car dedicated to racing and if so where would i get it?

this is the 98 thats messed up. is it beyond repair b/c the highest bid rite now is 500.

good luck with both of them... the 98 is more work than i'd personally want to put into a car to get it rolling again but if you've got the time and money to do so then more power to you

and as for insruance on a competition vehicle, as long as it's not driven on the street there is no insurance required.

but then how would you get it to the track if you don't have a truck and trailor? or should i buy one of each

Buy the 98 if you can. Don't know about fixing it but you can part that for way, way more than $500.

price got a lil steep

Not too surprising, that car had good value. Good luck with the 13 though.
