I agree with the others, you should hold-off for awhile! I always wait until I can buy 'distressed' vehicles (ie- ones that the owner can't keep, or that have a problem that I can fix...) & so, i get them for ALOT less money! I have bought two '70 & '71 RS, that have needed motors/ rebuilt (one for $500, & one for $400), I have bought them with bad carburetors, which made them run horribly & smoke (different carb, & they were great!), I have bought one with a 'bad tranny' that I found a ripped modulator line on, & drove it home (for $200!), & I have bought them after they were wrecked &with a couple hundred dollars in parts & paint, have doubled the value of them (for about three days worth of work! Like my red coupe I repaired- see photo).
So, if you are mechanically inclined, or if you can do body-work, (or if you paint or repair houses, etc. for trading...) I would recommend buying your vehicles 'distressed'!
Good luck!

Where in Canada is this Camaro for $3200.00?, it's not really that bad of a price.

I would have to agree with Blade ......... I don't think that this would be a good investment.
