    That's up to you... what are your life goals? Do you see yourself rolling around in a BMW down the road? Or do you see yourself rolling around in a mint condition 89 Accord LX-i with nice wheels on it?

    Guess thats upto you. To me it would depend on the overall condition of my car, how much it would cost to get it into REALLY good shape, and how attatched to it I am.

    You can take off the hub caps and give the wheels a fresh black paint on them.
    I'm your local R&D nut. Fabracting, welding, tuning and breaking my stuff so you don't have to.

    Around here the best 3g I could get for $1k would be a 4dr carb with no options, in need of half shafts and suspension work, bald tires, beat paint, and cat piss interior with 150K on it.
    I got mine for $1900 and it wasnt far from that other then that it is an lx-i, and the interior doesnt smell but was damn stained.
    I hate when people say things they have no idea about. In fact today I just looked up my car on a used car price guide(edmunds) and with all of the miles, wear, beat paint and such they thing still told me that it would sell for $1200 nonprivately.
    75 Malibu for sale, fully restored, $5,500 obo
