What happened to the reasonably priced project car?
I guess that I may be the only person out there that doesn’t want to restore every car I get. I don’t mind spending money on my cars, and I’ve restored a few things in my time, but always with patience and time spent over years to do so. Good deals on cars can still be had out there if you have patience and wait for the right deal to come along. I find good deals on cars all the time, and try to pass those deals on to folks who would take the cars to the next level. I will generally put some time into a car to get it to a point where someone can see their vision in it, and all without just opening the catalog and whipping out the credit card. Things like rims and tires can be found cheap, and they go a long way to build excitement and vision on a car. That’s the fun part of the hobby for me, and I doubt that will ever change. I’m just old school I guess.
Every single one of these cars I’ve sold in the last 5 years was bought and sold for less than $2500, all with time spent to improve them along the way.
