Are project cars getting this hard to find?

Browsing the local classifieds and I found this. Are good project cars so rare that people will actually buy this crap?

If you have to edit this for advestising I understand but it is more of a joke than anything.

Heres one I thought was junk. But to the right buyer it was worth a fortune.

I remember this one from an earlier thread. It ultimately winds up "in the eye of the beholder", how much someone is going to spend.

This Chrysler is not a "gem in the rough" in my mind, and neither would the Pontiac be. Heck a 1956 Bentley doesn't do it for me either. I'll post a pic tomorrow.

Right now a '32 Deuce Coupe with a blown big block might do it, but I guess I'll have to settle for a Honda instead.

I turned down a project car this week. 500$ for a 1951 Chevy Business Coupe. Had the original motor and tranny, body was in in decent shape except for the floors and it needed a grill. It would have made an awesome project, so good deals are still out there. I just didn't want to dip into savings right now to buy it. If it had been a truck of similar year in similar shape I might have done it.
