If you crash you die. What do you even mean? Take off the training wheels and live a little.
Cheaper classic cars

I hope they finally do become popular enough to bring in more money than they cost to restore.

It's a small unibody convertible built on a 1960s design. What are you expecting here?
That said, the rubber bumpers on the later models are functional. They can actually take a hit instead of being for-show metal trim. It's certainly worth considering retaining them if you want to DD the thing.

Most muscle cars can be quite affordable. It's when you get into high trim, manual transmission, big block cars that have a lot of work done, that it gets expensive. Most base classics in good shape with a small block and 3 speed auto aren't that bad.
Some good vehicles to look at:
>Dodge Dart, Demon
>AMC Hornet / Javelin / AMX
>Ford Maverick, Galaxy
>Pontiac Grand Am, 73 and up GTO, Firebird
>GM g-body 80s cars, buick regal, olds cutlass, monte carlo
>Plymouth Fury, Valiant, Satellite
>Chevy Monza, Nova, Camada

And yes, the vast majority of them came with a 4-speed. While they exist, you are not going to find an automatic MGB unless you really go looking for one.

Good luck finding manuals from that era.
All the poorfags bought 3-speeds and all the boomers swapped them to autos.

Oh friend i've got tons near me.

That's a good thing, user. Good fucking luck finding shift linkage parts for three-on-the-tree transmissions these days.
Jaxson Martinez
There were 3 speed floor shifters too.
Cooper Murphy
Out of those, I recommend this one.

It's fairly cheap, apparently in good condition, and most importantly it's a post-77 model, which means it has a modern 12-volt electrical system. When they made that switch a lot of the infamous British electrical problems went away.
