Buying a Classic Car

[Paxton]

As if three cars aren't enough, I have decided that I need something to occupy what little time I have remaining. After reading threads here, on the old forum, and on other car related forum, I think either an early 70's Falcon, or Valiant would be best, however I have no idea where to start looking, and I have less of an idea how to do up the car when I finally find the right one. My biggest problem at the moment is knowing where to start. I don't want a complete car, I would rather something that needs fixing, but as I said, I have no idea what to look for.

If anyone has any experience in the classic car arena - that is, what to look for, and how much to pay etc, let me know in the thread. Before I get flamed for wanting to know about Valiants, my Mum's car when I was growing up was a Valiant. We didn't get Falcon's until Chrysler went to the Sigma.

Any help is greatly appreciated, in what I know will be a long, and difficult process.
