Where to Buy Classic Cars to Restore

Folks all over want to know where they can easily find classic cars that they can restore.  It is isn’t easily answered but there are some general ideas that will get you on your way.  First of all, we do encourage everyone to first come to http://www.buyoldcars.com/ to find restoration cars.

Not all the cars are restore jobs, but some of them are!  All you have to do is look!  This will be even easier as we get our new classic auto classifieds finished up!  The next best thing is to look on other classic car websites like Hemmings, etc.  Not all sites have the same cars so you are sure to find something different everywhere you look.  Be sure to google what you want with parenthesis around the keyword phrase like “1967 Camaro for sale” restore you will be sure to find something! 

Also, don’t forget all the local junk yards around.  You might not find the exact car you want, but you might find something that interests you!  Last, don’t forget to use your network of friends who love classic cars like you.  Often if you dont know where to go, they do.

    We have a 1978 Pontiac Trans Am w/4sp, T-tops, 400 6.6 engine. It has been sitting for some years as hubby has never gotten around to restoring it. It is a limited edition (just like Smokey and the Bandit). It needs a lot of restoration work but woud be a beautiful classic muscle car if someone out there can afford this and have the time to do it. I drove this car for 12 years and really enjoyed driving it. Someone else would too.
