What is the best jalopy to bring home with my $1200 stimulus check?

Or something more 'racey'?   1970 Open GT  $1200  was really tempted on this one, but I already have a MG Midget, need another car I can't fit in?  NO

I almost posted that one too but decided to leave it at 2. Tempting!

I keep going back to it....oh no.  I have the RX8 that has back fees due and wouldn't this be a sweet body to drop down onto a RX8 chassis??     HELP, take away my car trailer, please!

I've already got one but would love to build another. Good thing it's too many states away.

This.

In reply to Bent-Valve (FS) :

Gotta be a scam. Or missing a zero.

In reply to 1SlowVW :

I've seen a lot of ads on FB with a zero missing in the listing, but the higher price in the description. I'm guessing they are trying to get more views, but I find it annoying because it creates more to sort through.

On Edit: it's a scam

A scam? On Craigslist? 

My world is truly upside down now!

I figured it was a broken odometer and sitting in a field with the pic from 10 years ago.

The world has reached a new low when the scammers start making their way onto craigslist.  

I shared my plan in the most recent vitual happy hour. It'll be over a month's worth of stimulus, and I won't be able to go snag it until interstate travel is easy again, but it's definitely the most "me" vehicle ever. 

I goofed and got distracted and missed the meeting.

I won't buy anything until I have work again. I have enough projects I shouldn't buy anything then either.

2 w124 coupes for $900 each or $1500 for both

Who trying to go half with me? I'm going to call tomorrow and see if they're available lol

I'd go in "all"if they were close enough for a one day trip. Add $1k a car for shipping and, eh.

Married filing jointly and we snuck in just below the 100% threshold, plus 1 kid, so we should be getting $2900.  No jalopies here, but I got $ approved for the TIG and a new toolbox so no complaints.  We are also going to sink some $ into the house later this year.

EDIT: but I think I'll get my nephew's 1990 325is because it's just been sitting in my sister's yard for about 3 years now, so I guess put me down for +1 jalopy after all.
