Surely one can't be so mechanically disinclined as to not know how to work on some of the simplest straight forward machines ever built?

I could probably learn on the go, I have friends who could help me. I just currently have no knowledge of mechanics.

Plymouth Dusters or something else relatively unknown.

>cosmetic damage
Is harder to fix than mechanical.

I just mean minor stuff like chipped paint or whatever, stuff that doesn't need urgent work

Do F-bodies count here?
If so, one of those. If not, you could probably find a clapped-out A-body for not too much.

Ausfag eh? You're gonna be looking at the Falcodore range then m8. Honestly, there are way worse things you could invest in, especially with the parts availability we have for them here.

Why a muscle car though?

If Mustangs count, get a 94-95 or 99-04 GT

Imo ideally a 94-95.
Old 5.0 is incredibly easy to work on and huge budget friendly aftermarket. Great way to learn. Is super reliable in stock form as well.
8.8 rear end that will hold under anything you'd probably put it through.

Only thing you'd really have to worry about is the T5 trans and even they are pretty stout long as you arent flat foot shifting gorilla slammin every gear all the time.

Anyways they're what I think is the cheapest V8 "muscle/pony" car to get into that will be reliable and fun.

My personal prefence would be 80s turd gen fbodies, or old 60-70 mopars or GM but you're all talking about cars there that will likely need work that you're not willing to do. Decent ones will not be cheap.

Are you sure you're an australian?

Good fucking luck, from what I've seen muscle cars are impossible to get there.

Also note the American style handicapped parking parking space. Still, OP could be gayer.

>big ten bolt rears available

I've done a ton of work to mine, including engine swap, and my only mechanic training is watching Roadkill.
