Boat posted:I had a '72 Dodge Dart which is pretty much the exact same thing and it treated me well. If that's got the slant 6 like mine did it'll run forever. That said, it doesn't sound like that thing is long for this world. I've got a 71 Duster with the slant 6, which I guess is why I'm curious about this V8 car. It just sounds fun, and would probably make for an inexpensive coffin.

Piano posted:I'm always confounded by these m3 conversion guys, mainly because (1) before I knew anything at all about cars(average person), I didn't know what an m3 really was or cared at all. (2) I still know almost jack poo poo about bmws but I know enough about cars in general that I can spot a real m3 from across a parking lot. I'm similarly puzzled by those fake brake rotors you can stick behind your hubcaps to make it look like you have disc brakes. If you care enough about cars to know about rotors and such, you can instantly see they're fake. If you don't care much about cars, you wouldn't even know what it was supposed to be imitating, and couldn't possibly be impressed.

I found out that Matlab can read in websites, so I did the first thing I thought of: plotted used car prices from Craigslist! First iteration of the program just gave an average, high, and low price for a given model and year in your area. Second scanned all years of the model in the area and plotted it. Third scans all years of a given model, and averages the models over most of the larger areas on CL. This takes a long time to run, but it shows some cool stuff. The program is far from flawless, since this is just based on a search term, so dumb-shits can still fool it with their 1993 Civic they put "WILL TRADE FOR CORVETTE" in the title. I also put a lower limit of $50 on the search, but I feel like the averages are low. Also, forgive my weird y-axis labels. It's supposed to say "cost," but my version of Matlab is grumpy as hell sometimes. On with plots! Corvette  Click here for the full 1200x900 image. Mustang  Click here for the full 1200x900 image. Camaro  Click here for the full 1200x900 image. Wrangler  Click here for the full 1200x900 image. I have some more of long-running productions like "Thunderbird" and "Beetle" and "Bug," if anyone wants to see those. Long story short, it looks like almost all cars in 1985 are the minimum. Super-nerd me wants to take the hp for each car and year and divide that out to get hp/$ (yes, I would have to change the search term to eliminate, say, V6 Mustangs).

Tai-Pan posted:I LOVE this kind of information. Please post everything. Can you pull things like "Ferrari" as well? The data suggests almost perfect U shape for the collectables. With enough data you could almost predict the exact month to buy a Ferrari 305 an have it start appreciating. Assuming the model holds and it is not that the 80's just sucked so much. Yeah, I'll post most of the rest tomorrow. I re-wrote the program to make it much quicker and easier to work with. I'm working on having it read a new list of cities, but making a list of every craigslist site in the US is taking a while.

I'm planning on selling my e30 318, and trying to figure out how to price it has been interesting. Local ads vary way too much, and provide some interesting examples. Mine is no peach (it's clapped as hell), but I still can't figure out where to price it. A hellaflush M50 swap http://denver.craigslist.org/cto/4746568602.html  A ruined engine block, being parted out http://denver.craigslist.org/cto/4732654962.html  Has this been rattlecanned? http://denver.craigslist.org/cto/4700005286.html  And one that's worth as much as an e90... http://denver.craigslist.org/ctd/4713120872.html

Rhyno posted:I think your body spontaneously grows one when you buy it. My wife and I actually own one of these. Her grandpa passed away and left it to us, along with an 89 Westy. The morning after it showed up in our driveway, I woke up in a tux and some guy named Enrique brought me breakfast. The brakes are weird as hell and barely exist, but it has fold down tables in the back for champagne, so who needs brakes.

Waffle House posted:We need a thread, AND more pictures. I'd pondered a thread, but the progress on EVERY project I have has been glacial recently thanks to building a Lemons car. Which raced this last weekend! And didn't blow up! And was probably the slowest car on the track! Everyone from my wife's family calls the Rolls "The Bentley," and some oral family history seems to imply it wasn't a factory Rolls, but I haven't done much research. I feel like an awful car person because I know next to nothing about this car that sits in my garage.   Right hand drive, but still right hand shifter, which makes getting in and out fun.   Back seat couch (yes, plenty of ash trays):  Aforementioned Lemons car. 94 Volvo 940, converted to turbo with Megasquirt installed at the last minute. Theme was weak (Swedish rednecks, words on roof read "General Leif" with a Swedish flag), car ran like trash, but had more fun than I thought possible.

This came up on my local copart auction. Good to see e30 M3 prices are staying reasonable.    Auction Listing $24k for a “stripped” M3 with 154k miles and “Transmission = NO.” Actually could be a bargain to flip, but that’s still a lot of money.

I got as far as setting up a time to see this before realizing that two Lemons cars is enough. But it made me very sad to cancel. Italian, ran when parked, "minor corrosion," mechanical fuel injection, wrecked, title issues... It's perfect.

I found out last night my tattoo artist has a 78 Toyota Chinook for sale at $3k. Sounds a bit like a basket case and I know I’m telling the wrong crowd to talk me out of it, but it’s so weird and cool… hoping for some pics here soon.

Mustache Ride posted:I owned a 54 international and it did not have split rims but it wasn't a dually so take that as you will. I have a 54 with regular, but then some year 3/4 tons and 1 tons do. Like everything IHC those years, there are about infinite combinations.
