You guys are just confirming my instincts.
I bought a fully restored Jeep CJ and a fully restored MGB and drove each for several years and sold both for roughly the same I paid. It was well worth it both times.
Thats what I want to do with a first gen camaro but I can't find one that is not overpriced. Everybody wants 30-40k.
I just want a driver quality car to have fun with for a while and not lose money.
I can do a great deal of mechanical work myself but I do not have the shop to install an engine and tranny.
I was hoping I could buy this one for 6,500 and put 6 to 7,000 in it and have a decent driver. Figured it would be an easy sale below 15 grand in a few years.
I appreciate all the thoughts so far.

Buy it, you drop a crate engine in it for under $5000, turn around and sell it for 25

That is on the high end for just a Camero even being restored. I've seen Camero SS go for that price.
The price is all relative to what it's worth for you and to the seller I guess. You can get a 350 stock engine for right at $2k and about the same for the trans.
