What happened to the reasonably priced project car?

They are but it takes a lot of looking. Funny part is, so many will buy a rusted out roller for $2000 and turn their nose up at solid running driving bb car for $3500-4500. They will say, but it still needs paint,interior, tires, exhaust, new windshield, some chrome trim, seat belts. etc!!!! And hey, the motor is just stock and not rebuilt!!!! and the trans..... ha
But if your looking for a Duster or Dart or any A body. A great deal on a early B body doesn’t help you.
