I Wouldn't Mind Building This

Project Cars You Can Buy Now For Less Than A Grand

Clear out the garage and buy another set of tools. It’s time to scrape knuckles and drain bank accounts on cheap project cars.

1984 Chevrolet Camaro Z28: $500




Since most people know me as a Mustang guy, I’ll reveal a secret muscle car desire of mine. I’ve always liked the long, low lines of the third-generation Camaro, and this particular Z28 with T-Tops is a perfect platform to build a sweet, properly fast American muscle machine. It’s located in Reno, Nevada and it’s a roller, so you won’t be driving it home. But muscle car builds start with the engine anyway, so no big deal.

The body looks solid, and Camaros of this generation enjoy a huge aftermarket, so whether you stick with an old-school carbed V8 or do the infamous LS-swap, there will be plenty of support to get the project done. With $10,000 and a bit of elbow grease you could have a 1980s mullet machine with the chops to run with the latest American muscle.
