No, I just need something to drive while I finish my truck projects. My budget is rather low though... I have a lot of money in parts that are apart right now

if you are military or have any friends that are, go to the lemon lots on bases. you will still be doing a buyer/seller transaction. You can find just what you are looking for, and sometimes nicer just because someone is PCSing to Hawaii or Okinawa or something and can't take the extra car. The one on Camp Pendleton was PACKED full of cars yesterday. Everything from Vettes to old Camry's.

Yeah my wife drove by there yesterday... I need something pretty cheap though since my engine is being built now. I've got a lot of money tied up in it.
