If you can find a car that's been maintained AND driven on a daily basis, you might just have to change the oil every three months or so and that's all. I also agree good specimens are $4k and up but you might get lucky in what you find.

If you have to do the FOES, you'll need $300 or more just in special tools to do the job, then there's a good $500 or more in parts.

Can you get away with a $500 budget for repairs for the first year? There's possibility and there's probability. Anything's possible, the probability is low.

Good luck with your decision.
