ummm, I doubt you find a good one that cheap, but good luck. I have a 95 9c1 with a LT1 that i am willing to sell, but I must have at least 3x$1300.

It only has 108k and I have put about $2000 into it in the past 3 months.

exactly where i was coming from. If you get one for $1300, expect to put at least another $1000 into it. I am saying this from experience, so trust me.

but that doesnt make sense. Why buy a piece of crap you know you will have to fix up instead of just buying a good 9c1 caprice that already has a 350, doesnt need painting, and may just need a little work?

Because why buy something that needs a little work, when i can buy a caprice for 1300 that only needs body work if anything?
then i can upgrade the engine ANY time i see fit OR upgrade it from the jump from the money i saved by noy buying a car that cost 2-4gs more and make my caprice a mean machine with that 2-4gs?

2-4 gs = new engine new trans, and parts i need to have it all working right.

i bought my caprice with the intention of making it nice... but three years later its still sitting in my driveway, its all a matter of time and money... i have the money but no time, if he wants a project let him buy one.

youre right. I feel that you will never buy a 9c1 caprice expecting not to have to do anything to it unless someone has already done it (the city definitely will not do it before they sell it) or it was captain's take home car or something.

Im not a big ford fan, but my friend had a 95 v8 like in the picture above and it was nice. I wouldn't drive one, but it was nice.
