A whole car?? You need to be browsing the local used car lots to see the state of the possible. The "Cash for Clunkers" program probably didn't help you out by reducing the affordable inventory.

I bought a '72 Chevy Chevelle for $3150.00. But that was about 37 years ago.

Maybe with 3k you can buy one of those "hooptie" Marauders.

I have a 1998 Malibu for sale. Car is in good condition and well maintained.

Has 89,000 miles on it, drives great, and the air blows cold.

my friend has a 2000 accord with 220k miles he'd love to get rid of for that price!

One owner, base model, clean 15" hub caps, interior smells like a horses ass, will run forever!

If he's really the Pope, he already has a car.

A bulletproof one.

Probably true!

If you're shrewd and know cars, peruse Craigslist autos (not personals) and there are often some used rides that have seen some action on there. (Again...autos section...)

Seriously though I find Craigslist has a ton of things that never go to classifieds or auto-trader in that price range due to the fact it's a free listing. People selling cheaper cars don't want to spend $100 on an ad.

Every time I look at it, I can find something that looks plenty worth the price on there, so it won't take long to find a deal, just make sure you know your stuff and don't buy someone elses problem. (one more time. I'm talking about the autos section)

Oh and silly me, you could just buy my Mustang (http://www.mercurymarauder.net/forums/showthread.php?t=57175)...

I have a 1998 Volvo S70 that I am selling for 3k. It has 124K on it and i just finished completely fixing up it! New plugs, plug wires, distributor, and a whole whole lot more! It had a new used transmission installed at 120k and runs amazingly! The only issue is the interior has seen better days but its not bad. If you want more info on it shoot me a PM.
