Greetings - No Luck at Zephryhills Auto Show and Auction. Cars under 10K are not worth it. Iteresting if you got the $$$$, the expensive ones are down quite a bit 1/3 rd off.

I would go to both of those. I've had my car in both for "show" purposes not for sale. But saw some nice cars. HOWEVER, your NOT going to get a deal at either, but you'll see some cars that will help you "learn" about values vs PRICE. I agree with 69FB that restore shops have a lot of information but I've YET meet one that has given me a lead. They typically are in the business of making money and if it is a good car from a seller....THEY will buy it and charge you a TON to own it. Don't waste your time.

you're looking in the right directions with Craigslist but I would't buy in FLORIDA!!!!

brwn..... I'd go to Alabama, Ga (not the east side) NC (not the east side) Tn is pretty good and some KY, MS,

Tx, AZ, and NM are pretty well picked over in my opinion. Still some good deals out there. I was lucky my car came out of Maryland but was not used much in the winter and from what I can tell 70 or the 114 were in the first 10 years. the remainder 30 years... so I got lucky.
