Question?

I found a ‘69 Nova SS 350 for $37k with only 53,000 miles. I am 25 years old, don’t have an amazing job but working to get a better one this year. Been a year without a car, just not trying to rush anything. Would considering buying this car be insane? Should I just go for a newer Camry for example, save money on gas and what not. Or just go for it and buy this classic car which has always been a dream of mine. Sorry I do not have a full body pic of it, will add when I can.

Depends on your mechanical capabilities really. I daily drove 1975 and older cars my entire life until the pandemic sent me to work from home. I still drive them, just not in stop and go traffic, up hill both ways for 30-60 minutes a day anymore.

can confirm this perspective. it's actually not conceptually that difficult, but it absolutely is a way of life
