What Classic Car Would You Drive ($5k-$10k range)

TKOTED

For 10K (often much less) you can get a very nice piece of Italian design. This is a 1984 Alfa Romeo GTV6 Maratona edition (1 of 150). I drove one of these for around 10 years and have nothing but fond memories of this car.

Nice. TR6 is the car I have wanted for 30 years but it was to rich for my blood. Are you in Maryland?

Yep, live right here in the free state of Maryland. I live in Lexington Park, about 40 minutes south of Waldorf.

I've had several British cars. This is the best I've ever had. I've had it about 10 years now and still only has 36K original miles. I'm also restoring a 59 TR3A which is in 1000's of pieces right now. That is on the back burner for a bit since I just made an audio purchase and the wife wants a new patio!

2. 1955 Star Chief 2 Door Hardtop with AIR - $16000 (Lubbock, Tx)

http://houston.craigslist.org/car/768657573.html No affil.

What a beautiful car this is !! Star Chief hardtop with stock 279 V8 & 2 barrel for better mileage, power steering, New standard drum brakes, stock 4 speed hydramatic & stock highway gears. Beautiful Ruby red & white paint(3 yr. old) with a very few minor dings as it is a DRIVER..Near perfect stainless & chrome...(hood ornament & taillight bezels should be replaced). Runs & drives GREAT. All stock instruments work except clock. All lights work & will pass state inspection. Vacumn wipers should be replaced with electric..I think the Chevy aftermarket wiper unit will work. Near perfect Gray tweed interior. NO rips or tears. Alpine stereo. After market air with Sanden compressor. NEW American Racing wheels & New Kumho tires, , 17" front 18" rear give it a to die for stance. Underside is VERY clean & no rust issues. VERY reliable, start up & go anywhere, anytime cruiser..NOT a show car but won't embaress you at the show & will take some "also ran" & people choice awards. More thumbs up than any classic I have ever owned. NADA average is $19,100.00 plus 15% for hydro & A/C..You will have to agree with me that this car is at LEAST average !!
$16,000.00 CASH or BANK wire & worth every dime.

New starter / New tires & wheels / New Water pump / New thermostat / HEI distributor / Edlebrock 4bbl carb / new taillight sockets (not installed)

Needs work. Rust in the rear quarter panels, trunk, and rear window (normal spots for these cars). Needs work on turn signal, horn, and rear lights to pass inspection.

This is a very clean strong running very tight Mustang. The air conditioning blows ice cold, automatic transmission shifts just fine, suspension is tight, all windows and doors shut properly. The interior is in very good shape no major wear and tear at all. All the instruments work, tires and rims are in excellent shape. The body is very sound the paint does show some wear.

I have the Texas blue title on hand. Call me or email if you are a buyer.
