Bill,
You are wise to take your time ... there are FIAs out there and sooner or later the right car, at the right price, will pop up and you will be ready to pounce on it ! :D |

The problem is more me than anything else, I have a maximum ceiling of $40,000, some owners and I are just 2K apart, but realistically there is no way I can come up with the additional funds (and still pay taxes on the sale) any time in the foreseeable future. Sounds crazy, but I am realistic to my current economic issues (college tuition, business, and home wise)There are a few 427SC cars in the low 30's I'm considering, even one Unique FIA for 22K in NJ (now on craigslist), but needs a complete teardown and rebuild which I am unwilling to do on this car (I knew the last owner, this car was not taken care of from day one but is a good deal for someone who wants a project like that)...... Bill S. |
here's a solution, buy a new f5 mk4, i'll trade you even up for the body, one of my FiA bodys, bolts rite on, tho in a few other trinkits and you could build just what you want for under $30k, as long as you don't go crazy money wise, and you'll have $10 k left over

you can always just send Peter a deposit...spec it out how you would like ..then wait |
So you have to spend an additional 6,7,or 8 % on sales tax too? Geez, what's the advantages of living up north? We pay advalorum tax based on the year and cost of the vehicle. But with a car registered as a 65 it's like an extra $2.25 a year. Is this taxed on the sale of the car as well? They had something like this in Ga. years ago but after a while it was voted out! That FIA in NJ doesn't look that bad and for the costs needed it to get it "right" you would be ahead wouldn't you. How does the state know what you buy a car for if it's a cash sell? Just curious. Matt

What about mathematics? Hmm, I guess I see truth as absolute. Bill, my apologies for the digression. |
Patrickt and Rodknock,
You are both legendary at hijacking threads and taking them places they should never have gone in the first place. Kindly take your usual bickering/bantering/hijacking off my thread, maybe to PM's would be better for the two of you. I do thank you both for your future cooperation in keeping this thread on topic. Bill S. |
Don't buy somebody else's junk. Just wait for the right car to come along, or wait for the price on the car you want to come down. Cash is king. As for the state and the DMV, tell it straight and they won't come knocking. Good luck with your search.

|
Bill ... stay on target ... you have had the FIA bug for a while ... you just need to find the right car to scratch that itch !
