Have bought a lot of cars for under a grand and that includes my Judge (1986ish). Today (well last year) $2500 was pocket change. Market this year has gone nertz but doubt it will last. Have eight at moment evenly distributed from 1970 to 2012. Five are two seaters.. All but one have garage doors. Only have one 4 cyl but it is boosted. All have AC. One is a long roof tow car (have had a tow car since 1972).

Moved to central Florida in 1984 partly because things do not rust here. Had home built with intention of a lot of garage space despite being in development with sidewalks and a HOA. Just takes planning.

ps being anchient I remember 22c/gal for premium. Drive all night for a dollar. Those were also days of Ripple, Boones Farm was a step up.

pps was recently told that one of my old cars (paid a grand in 1970) sold for a quarter mil.
