Unfortunate but true -- someone somewhere with a pride-and-joy has fallen on hard times and is conducting a forced sale. Find that person whatever it is they have.

Just A Car Guy: 1957 Plymouth Savoy. All original. Only 30k original miles!

Don't know what that went for, probably less than that Metro with 400 miles; could you see yourself in Salmon Pink?

Here (FORGOTTEN Volkswagen Thing On The Road Again After 25 YRS| Engine Swap On 1974 VW Type 181 |RESTORED) is a Thing. They bought seven VWs for $1000 (on an asking price of $750: good guys), threw a running engine in the Thing and drove to a gas station to fill up before doing the brakes.

One hand on the handbrake lever is a familiar posture.
