I've owned a 1968 Simca 1000. It was a blast to drive, 4-speed, 4-cylinder (rear mounted iron block, aluminum head), 12" tires (mud&snow on rear, highway on front). That little thing would go just about anywhere.
On second thought, the Simca 1000 may not be the safest car on the road.A lot?

I don't know what shipping from Italy would be, but...

Closest I ever came was a '73 Nova SS. 350, 4bbl, 4 speed. It was a piece of crap overall, but it was fun to take out on U.S. 52 south of Lafayette and put it through its paces.
They are, but they also still command a premium. Anything that isn't under 150,000 miles is likely going to be $10k or so. Depending on who owned it, it would likely need some love to refresh original parts.
I don’t need a high powered car to have fun. My racecar makes 116whp. My daily has 180whp. Manual trans, sticky tires and good suspension is all I need
When I was a kid I was smart and poor dreamed of a Porsche then I made some money and decided I like security more than speed...now if I made 7 figures maybe...but I will stick with Hondas Subaru cars and Ford trucks
