Alright guys, I'm new to the forum and I have a few questions. First of all, my friend has a 240 that we're doing an engine swap on, and basically he's got me extremely interested in 240's now. I've always been a fan of drift racing, so I figured I could possibly get into a 240 of my own and give it a whirl. (not saying I just want a drift machine by any means though)

Anyways, I currently own an 04 Srt4 that only has 62k on it and I posted it on my local craigslist for a 240 trade. (with cash, unless I got offered an amazing one) I've gotten a few offers so far, but only one has really stuck out to me. Here's what he sent me:
It is actually a 1995 240sx SE
-a 97'-98' facelift
-S13 SR20DET Redtop swap
-4mm wider rear fenders
-300zx brakes (I know up front, not completely sure about in the back also) along with the master cylinder
-Greddy intercooler
-Greddy catch can
-HKS BOV
-Hardpiping for intercooler
-Limited Slip from an infiniti
-Battery relocated to the back
-Brand new paint job
-Springs (Koni?)
-5zigen fno1r-c wheels, (I believe 17's all around, 275' wide in rear and 235' in the front)
-I have an extra rear bumper, front bumper, welded diff, and a few other things off the top of my head

He said the odometer and speedo stopped working at 185k when they put the new sr in it, and he estimates that the car is probably up to like 195k and around 40k on the sr. He said there is absolutely NO rust on the car. (even on the frame) The only other problem is that the radio isn't working. He said he thinks theres a bad connection somewhere.
Anyway, what I really want to know is how much do you guys think the car is worth? Is it worth a trade for my Srt4? (the Srt4 bluebooks around 9-10k) I've just been offered 9k for my car, so I'm hoping if I can sell the Srt, I can just buy the 240 for a decent price. I apologize if this isn't in the right forum, like I said, I'm new. Thanks in advance.

Here are some pics of the car:
