Because a nice rolling chassis is worth $1k. Most people will drop a car cheap with no/hurt motor and you usually can fund a used one for $500-1000.

I hapily paid $2600 for my mint 3.1 Bird.

Jump on that. If it needs a tuneup and fuel pump you will only pay like $200-$250 for all the parts if you do the work yourself and then you've got a nice car to drive around in.

I'm a cheapskate when it comes to vehicles(I have a rule that I pay no more than $1k for a vehicle at the outset).

Even I say jump on it. It's a great deal.
