The 280z you can probably find for 2k in decent shape. I bought my 280z back 10years ago for 1200. Wasn't much to look at but ran strong and had a decent chasis. It's going to take patience and like I said, you might have to spend a little more than 2k. Also check out zcar . com for more help on older Z's. Good luck and let me know if there is anything else.

I would def increase my budget...my thinking is I would rather spend a couple grand more on a decent running 240z than get a rust bucket for <$1000 that will require a million hours of work. I see that 280z are easier to find, but I am pretty set on a 240 with the L28. The 280z is a larger car, so do they both have the ~50/50 weight ratio?
