You are not going to get a good rate on a used car, especially something over 10 years old and definitely not on a 30 year old sports car with 100k+ miles. If they will provide financing on something like this, a person will need significant money down with strong credit and or a solid co-signer.

At least that has been my experience. Seriously, if you know of banks that will provide loans on 20-30 year old specialty cars to those without a great deal of credit history and existing debt, I would love to hear who they are. It would definitely help sell more cars...
My comment was directed towards classic cars, typically defined as 25 years or older, there are several lenders for that. Just google it. Here’s one advertising at a 3.99% rate, I’d call that very competitive. You can’t do much better than that on new car financing.
