What it’s a good cheap, classic car? Preferably convertable and I need to have a V8 engine?

examples: Plymouth Road Runner, Oldsmobile Cutlass, etc. My budget goes as high as $6000. I have automotive body and engine experience so if you think if I can find a banged up one that needs work that’ll do. I’m kinda looking for a good ole’ muscle car and tying to steer clear from Mustangs. I’m mostly looking car brands and makes only, not links to cars on sale. THANKS

    With a Budget of 4000 to 4500 for a car 2000 to 1500 for fix up. You can Shop all day but you need to narrow it down to a Few ? You know your not going to get a rare car So look out side the box.

    I found a 69 LeMans convertible for 3500 but no motor. But couldn’t pass it up.

    Another off the wall year is a 65 66 67 Rambler American Convertible easy to swap a SBC into.

    If you look around on ebay at convetibles you can see different ones over the years that would be best for you.

    If you go to swap meets The price on the 1st day of a 3 day weekend will be MORE than the price on Saturday evenings price.

    looking for the off not wanted cars well find you a great car and your budget is a good set. . .

    GM 1965 to 1972 Custom S, LeMans, Tempest
    Gm 1965 to 1972 Skylark
    GM 1965 to 1969 F-85 Olds S or Cutlass

    Ford 69 XL
