  1. I got a 93 c1500 with everything working for 1200. Lol. I’ve found out the v6′s are more expensive than the 305′s or 360′s lol.

  2. Picked up a 98 Chevy 3/4 ton 4×4 diesel for…..Get this $700.00 dollars. Under 160k miles. Once got a 70 ford 2wd camper special for $50.00 dollars. Good deals are out there just have to look and be patient

  3. Cadillac El Dorado:
    Length – 223 in (5,700 mm) (1971–73)
    Engine – 500 cu in (8.2 L) V8 (1971–76)
    425 cu in (7.0 L) V8 (1977–78)

    Chevrolet Suburban (1973 – 1991):
    Length – 219.1 in (5,565 mm)

  4. I bought a 2000 Crown Vic P71 for $1300. It seemed like a good deal at first but the gas mileage was killing me. Wound up trading it for a ’90 Honda Accord. Sounds like a ripoff I know but I needed the MPG.

  5. lmao dude you basically bought a huge repair bill….the average bmw repairs cost more that your car lol

  6. I know its not under a grand but here in Chicago I have seen a lot of the dodge charger police interceptors for around 3 grand.

  7. Bought a ’96 explorer sport 4×4 for $1000. Has 199,000 miles but its cleaner under the hood than my ’07 Jetta. Replaced a fuel pump and the truck runs perfect…LOVE it. Let the Ford-haters hate, I know the truth;)

  8. Wow, 8mpg? The car is cheap but the money spent on buying fuel.. Not worth it.

  9. 1987 Nissan 300ZX turbo. Not a thing at all wrong with it. Ran very strong and near flawless paint. $950.

  10. And a 97′ pontiac Grand prix GTP with the 3800 supercharged for 400 bucks. Runs fine, brand new tires. Engine and transmission is going in my fiero.

  11. Picked up an 86′ Pontiac Fiero GT (ha ha, fiero… -.-) for a grand and had it checked over. It was appraised at 6500 bucks.
    I consider that a win.

  12. I like how the steering wheel is off to the side when going in a straight line.

  13. Suburban and the ’73 Eldorado are about the same length: 222″ or 18.5′ long. I own an Eldorado convertible that has 102,000 miles on it now. Replaced distributor, radiator, water pump, etc. since I’ve own it for ten years now. When the woman in a passenger seat of a late model Corvette convertible waves at me, methinks someone spent too much for his Vette. Sure, performance, the Vette is awesome, but for cruising around the city, nothing is better than the old Caddy convertibles.
