Anyone want to road trip this one to me? It's a desert over here for anything decent under $1k like this!
Have patience. I found both my cars on craigslist for killer deals :)

Guy never replied to my email.

Not to mention some people in my area saw my post looking for an 80's hatchback and flagged it only to put up their own next. Flagged theirs, posted mine up again and so far it hasn't been taken down yet.

Another tip: http://crazedlist.org/

It allows you to search multiple areas at once. I think you have to use firefox and have to change some setting to get it to work.

I'd do it but I have no idea how to get them back on.

Managed to get a damn good lead on a minty Accord in my area!

:mrgreen: *feeling like a million bucks right now* :mrgreen:

(That or I may just get a Celica Supra that I'm very much back and forth on the fence about)

Accord negotiations are now looking rocky. The guy I'm buying it from is all gun-ho about selling it to me, but his father wants more than it's worth for it and is making things tough.

On the flipside an extremely well maintained Honda Civic Wagon/Van crossover (aka the Wagovan) popped up in my area and I leaped onto it the second I saw it. While I dig everyday hatches this is practically a Euro style Aerodeck Hatch which is definitely something special.
