And for manufacturers it's an excuse to push their low selling models because "racecar".
Found a 68 mustang on craigslist. 289, 3 speed manual. I don't know about the rust situation, I'd have to see it in person. Needs interior work obviously, but I belive it could be one hell of a cool car. Thoughts? He is asking $3500.

forgot the link.
Body looks ok, but $3500 for a notch 3 on the tree improperly put together missing all the trim is not a good deal
>>17821019
how much do you think all of that trim would be? It is missing a fuckton of chrome, and all the carpet and seats. I'd try to talk him down to $2800
Going to fly 800 miles north to pick up my new Z (pic related). The current owner still has the stock hood. I am wondering if there is a way to safely transport a car hood on a 350z. Maybe using a back rack or securing it to the current hood with some padding in between?
Any suggestions? Seems like shipping it would be pretty expensive for a hood that is worth $350-$400.
Have him knock 300 off the price and let him keep the hood

Ok guys Ill just come clean here. I will be buying my first car soon, I'm 19, and have 2,800$ Canadian, and its my budget for my car. I am not a car guy I'm just some bloke in a car town. I just want to be sure I get what I pay for. I've been looking into Some honda Civics or Rav 4, but I'm leaning more towards the Coupe y'know. Any help would be appreciated thank you.

I think he found a more respectable job, like ivory hunting.

What's a good low budget car that's not too slow stock? Ideally I'd like to get a car sub-2k that's a manual, and build from there.
>>17818041

I take it that build is a completely meaningless buzzword now?
