May as well buy a restored Mopar.....

I bought this car for $4k from a widow lady. It turned into more of a project than I expected but it's OK now. I ended up touching every part of the car other than the engine and transmission, and it's just a matter of time for those.

I've got about 10k in it, but wouldn't take double that for it, not because it's nice but because cars are just too danged expensive these days.

Also other cars are just too screwed up with. You end of buying someone else's issue's. "why are they selling it" I can think of a few FABO posters here that have bought restored A-bodies above $20K and they are immediately going through them all over again.

One I can think of does the work himself and methodically is going through the cars tail to tip making minor improvement, fixes, lot of piece of mind stuff.

The other guy bought mid 70's A-body from a dealer and is paying shops to pretty major fixes as he stumbles on to them. Most of the time the fixes include modifications or improvements at same time. The modification aspect seems to hide the pain of a needed repair. I can see in the background of the pictures that this car is very hacked. I'm sure he's got well over $10K in repairs and changes.
