500 Bucks for a 72 Nova SS with a 350. It was backfiring and running rough. The dealer thought it was valve and it turned out to be a spark plug. I used to come across deals like this all the time in when I was in Vegas and Phoenix, now everything has dried up. This of course, when you do have the money and are looking..

My 78 Malibu was free. I'd say that's an ok deal.

I scored 3 15 brand new snow tires on blazer wheels for $30. One of the rims was cracked so I took it to the scrap yard and got $12 for it, so 3 new snow tires and 2 rims that went right on my cutty for $18. Guy had a garage that he rented to someone and then left a bunch of stuff behind he just wanted it gone.
