Watch what you buy.

Cheap will always mean shit box.

Your dealing with much older cars as well.

Do you mean old as in 60’s, 70’s or 80’s?

Camaro/Firebirds - structural = rear frame right in the pockets.
Mustangs - floors and well basically friggin everywhere.
Vette’s - well, it’s a vette. good luck with that.
Chrysler - just stay the fuck away lol.

To me, your best bet. Get an old 2wd s-10 with a solid frame. Slap in a 350. And that’s it. No A/C. P/S depends on year. Everything is manual. 4-speed or 5-speed. Auto is by your preference. Slap a 3.73 gear and you got a 12 second truck. They drive awesome when they are dropped 3-6 inches. VERY cheap to build.

Go to a scrap yard and get a 5.7 SBC out of a 1/2 ton, slap a cam and mild rebuild 30 over. Intake and 600 carb. I guarantee you, you will NOT be dissapointed.

Not to mention…drift truck, 1/4 mile, even road racing.

im not a huge truck fan, but your right along the lines of what i want.

some crazy 70’s falcon or camaro or whatever would be the bomb but all of those things seem to cost a fortune!
