In Finland we have saying, put your buying pants on. Which means that you are ready to buy stuff.
I've been looking at listings on Craigslist and Facebook Marketplace and I come up with these two:
Yes, these were meant to be my project cars, that I can fix during those dark and cold winter days.
But as I thought about them more, might not be worth the time and effort to check it out.
So, then I found out this:
Patina, yes. But front glass is broken. No photos of interior. Lot's of body rust and needs to be addressed.
The Guy said that being 14 weeks old listing with that price, doesn't feel right. So I skipped it.
Then the Guy sends me this listing:
Okay, not bad at all in the first glance. But then I read the description and not currently running, but still have the original engine block. Well, that can mean a whole lot of deals, but since there aren't picture about engine bay. But even it is in nice condition on the exterior and interior, not functional with that $10k price tag. Yeah, there might be a chance to make an offer, but I'm not yet ready for this, even thought one of the best I've seen so far.
Okay, there was one really good 1970 El Camino available in Sweden, Blocket.se, but as I was talking about it with my friend, it was sold. Price was around 17k€( ~ $18k).
As the shipping takes from 4 months to 6 months, I am not getting it for this driving season, so I am not in a hurry to buy one that I can drive right away. Although I want one that I can fix and one that can be my daily driver.
I'll keep you posted!
