I have a mid-size Oldsmobile and a full Size Jeep. Now I just need something smaller without a roof and my life will be complete.

It needs to be classic and cheap— no modern plastic bumper garbage.

I know motorcycles fit the requirements, but I don't want another for a while.

Have a Crosley HotShot for your time

I'm going to ignore your requirement that they be cheap.

I wish I could afford those.

I know you said no plastic bumpers but this is one of my favorites. I've been on an AMC kick lately

Not sure what cheap means to you, so here's to options (3 minutes on local CL)

You choose, a Minty alfa spider or a Needs-a-little-TLC fiat 124 ?

I'll try and help with your search. Do you prefer American, European, Japanese, or are you open to anything?

You know what I've always found overrated? Second gear syncros:

Preferably American because I have a lot more customary tools than metric tools, but I'm open to anything as long as parts aren't not too terribly scarce

I'd call 13k affordable, but not cheap

The Fiat is more the prices I'm looking at

Does it have to be reliable?

What about this? I've heard that VW parts aren't too hard to come by.

No; reliability is a non issue.

30k is not exactly cheap

CAcoalminer > Jedidiah 11/17/2014 at 23:51

Cheaper than my first attempt.
