My last one was $1,900 + towing and was lots of fun, granted me some good parts, and gave Rick a base to build a spec car.

Just the education of completely stripping my first parts car was worth (to me) way more than I paid.

Although I admit, what keeps me entertained may not satisfy everyone's taste.
2k a year? On what? Just curious. If tracked often and counting tires maybe...
