Cheapest car to restore?

Pics below are my uncles mustang and the trans am I am looking at.. Hard to believe they drug those hunks of **** out of a field and got one ready for paint.. I can't wait until he decides to paint it because that means I get to drive it here ..

Hopefully my Lemans will be gone and I can go look at the trans am in person.

what is the cheapest car to restore? one someone else already did and you just bought. also the fastest way to do one.

Cheapest i know is any air cooled vw.But the problem is selling it fast under 5 grand would be a lot of shotty work and using bondo to fiix it all.I couldn't do that but a lot of people do.I see a guy on ebay once a month with a mustang fastback that is a freshly painted shell makes me think hes trying to hide something or its a coupe with a fastback roof on it.Only way to make money flipping cars is forget anything old.Hit car auctions the ones from charities are nice people donate a car with a blown engine or tranny.So you get the car for under a grand a lot of times drop in a engine or tranny clean it up and you might make 1500 profit off it.if your not scared of body work you can get a wrecked car and fix it but if the title says salvaged your kinda screwed.My biggest cash cow is unmarked crown vics i get most for 2k or less clean it up and i make a grand profit easy and fast.My best one yet was a 87 monte carlo ss no engine they took the dog house off it 800 bucks put in a 305 for 200 shined it up got 3500 out of it.

My first fixer was a 94 Camaro. Got it from some guy for free and had transmission problems. Got some birthday money I had saved up and put in a new clutch, master, and slave.. Made $1000 off of it. Guy I sold it to pulled the engine and trans and is putting it in a Triumph TR4 or something.


But yeah, someone is hopefully coming tomorrow. God I want this thing gone so bad. I feel like that trans am is slipping through my fingers..

I just hope the person I sell it to doesn't cut it up, that is my only fear.
