I once drove a project car with a bucket for a driver’s seat. After falling over backwards, I found myself on my ass in the backseat, a passenger in a car with a bucket for a driver. This friggen thing doesn’t even have the bucket!

300hp could be perfect... if they weighed 1000+ pounds less.

For me it’s the 4000# weight. Is there any feedback at all from the steering or suspension? It’ll be exciting once battery tech evolves to the point that cars actually start getting lighter year by year. I’d love a 2000# sports car with an electric powertrain.

Just the one

Oy vey

It’s ok to hoard corvette parts, as long as it’s not for a C3.

I’ve since moved back to CA... I’ve had the opposite experience, strangely. You can look through Los Angeles Craigslist with no filter and find so much cool stuff. There will almost always be ONE of anything you want to buy. I just tested it. I thought “Studebaker Avanti” and there is one for sale on LA CL. Never saw…

It’s been a while but IIRC they fixed the snap oversteer with travel limiting straps in the rear. It’s sort of non-issue because the car’s suspension is incredibly sorted by the aftermarket, none of the enthusiast-owned cars have the stock suspension kit anymore.

This guy should be a mechanic. I’m a garage-rat through and through, but I couldn’t muster the enthusiasm to turn a single bolt on any of these. Who wrenches on a Sebring unless they’re being paid?

Are you looking at the same collection of cars I am?

But it’s not all that he can afford... he’s chosen to spread his budget out across a bunch of heaps. He’s gone for quantity over quality, which is always the wrong move, in any context.

Why can’t you daily drive a Crossfire? It’s not a Lotus 7...

I guess it’s all relative. When I moved from CA to NC (with my 50 year old CA car), the car started wasting away faster than I could fight it. Moisture and rain is a bitch, too. I personally would never buy a classic car from anywhere but the arid parts of the west. You can ship a car anywhere in the US for $1k.

Maybe you’re anti-semitic? That would explain it.

Every Corvair is a safe Corvair if you know how to drive...

He wants something you could only get in the 80s, he wants muscle, he wants 4 doors, he wants to retreat to nature.
