DIY LS 300ZX

1995 Nissan 300zx LS Swap

~155,000 miles, manual, rwd, 8 cylinder

$4,000 / Meridian, ID

Listing is for the shell and parts to complete the LS swap into the 300zx.

BROKEN IN BURBANK

2007 Maserati Quattroporte

~105,000 miles, automatic, 4wd, 8 cylinder

$4,500 / Burbank, CA

This car was over $120k new. If you can fix it, this would be a fun car for the price.

FORGOTTEN FORD

1975 Ford Courier

~48,406 miles, manual, rwd, 4 cylinder

$4,800 / Thurmont, MD

I'm starting to realize all of my favorite American cars are rebadged Japanese cars. There's a bit of rust, but it adds to the character.

RALLY WAGON

2001 Subaru Impreza Outback

~215,200 miles, manual, awd, 4 cylinder

$3,300 / Vancouver, WA

The body has a few rough spots, but it's perfect for a rally build.

MOUNTAIN RIG

1998 Toyota RAV4

~320,000 miles, manual, 4wd, 4 cylinder

$500 / Myrtle Creek, OR

Super cheap and may not need much to get it running. Would probably clean up pretty nicely.

➡️ If you buy a car listed in Good Deal Garage & email us a picture of yourself with the car, we’ll feature you in the newsletter PLUS send you something special in return!

GTA IRL

1991 Pontiac Trans Am

~55,212 miles, automatic, rwd, 8 cylinder, pop-up headlights

$4,200 / Ellenwood, GA

In 1991, this was the top-of-the-line Trans Am. Would still be a very fun car today.

CLEAN YOUR CHINOOKS AND CRANNIES - OVERBUDGET

1977 Toyota Chinook

~76,712 miles, manual, rwd, 4 cylinder

$6,000 / Sevierville, TN

With a little TLC this would be a great mini camper. The camper is based off of the Toyota Hi-Lux pickup.

E39 LOOKIN’ FINE

2000 BMW 540i

~167,000 miles, automatic, rwd, 8 cylinder

$4,500 / St. Louis, MO

Very well taken care of and looks great. Cheap way to get a reliable V8.
