So what do you do? Just go ask people how much they want for the car sitting in the barn you just meandered through the night before? Just kidding.. I really do want to know how you find out about these cars though..

Re: How Many Miles?

I think most of the cars you would see are just sitting in a open field. Couple of my friends saw a older mustang nothing special but a car that ran 800.00 bux.
Maybe ask you parents friends or something like that get the word around that you are looking for a car something in good shape yeah and all of that.

It's tough in washington, because everything sitting outside here is rusted to hell. My dad always catches wind of good deals like this though..
