DD/Project car under $10K

[kball]

Looking at getting a DD/project car under $10K...cars that come to mind are...

240
Fox body mustang
3rd gen Camaro
300ZX TT
Lexus SC300
3rd gen RX-7

I'm looking for something manual and RWD. Also, no verts. Open to other suggestions though. What do you all think? Any recommendations? Thanks.

My vote goes to the fox. Not a notch, a GT hatch.

my 01 GT, come get it

94-95 gt stang. They are dirt cheap right now. Since it is a dd you have to consider that the sn95s drive better than a fox.

I got me a notch... love it.

You can find plenty lf LT1 camaro's under 10k, and if you search hard enough you can find some LS1's in good shape too.

You could probably find a beater '86 or '87 Buick GN in need of an overhaul for about that much (and if not, a Buick t-type). Not a manual, but a totally badass car in its own right.

Otherwise, I'd say a 3rd gen RX7. Those, too, are badass little cars.

S14 240, swap in a RB25 or a SR20 for under 10 easily.

No one wants a camaro, not even you ...... you just dont realize it yet.

Lincoln mark 8. Those make great sleepers, and mechanical parts are readily available and less expensive than many of the imports listed.

Actually I'd shoot for a decent LS1 car. An a4 with decent miles. Add a built rear, sticky tires, and spray for a beast.

96-98 cobra.

I'd personally want a Trans Am.

You don't want a thirdgen Camaro, just take my word.

You could find a nice 5.0 Mustang or LT1 Camaro for that kind of money.

I like that idea too. I have been thinking about doing an 240 project myself.

Thanks for the other ideas everyone...keep them coming!

Why would you look at a 3rd Gen Camaro? For under $10K, you can find a totally mint LT1 or even a decent shape LS1 if it's just your daily. Why have 1XX hp when you could have 2XX hp or even 3XX hp? :rockon:
