If you were to buy an oldie just to drive all the time for around $10K what would you buy? Just a running, driving, stopping car. No regard for it's value in 5 years, if it's scrap it's scrap.

I think that be just a tad over 10k.  :smile:
   For me, I'd like a nice 67 or 68 Fury III, preferably with a 383.

I`ve never owned a C body but always wanted one, a `71 Gran Coupe would be an awesome cruiser to drive anywhere in comfort.

I must have missed the 10 k part  :Thud:
I did drive an older Ram 2500 Cummins 5 spd for years , it had 650,000 miles on it when I sold it still running well

I miss driving the 65 Fury III had as daily driver in the 1990's.
Had been in family since new ,was second driver.
Damn , why did I sell it.

A Magnum or Córdoba.

I had a 76 Córdoba in the early eighties. It had a 360. I loved the car but gas mileage sucked.

CP's 12V is the most practical choice alright. I see decent 12V trucks for sale regularly around here for under $10k and they run forever if fed a dose of frontend parts once in awhile. The age does bring them into classic territory now too.
Most fun cheap driver I had was a 1969 D100 with 318, NP435 and 154,000 miles. I paid $800 for it, changed the brakes, fluids, frontend parts etc. and drove it a ton, had more fun and got more interest in that truck than the musclecars for some reason.

I used to have both an 83 and 84 Hurst Olds.

If it needs to be Mopar, then a Ramcharger.
