eBay Challenge: Future Appreciating Classics For Less Than $25,000

If you listened to your parents as a know-nothing youth, you'd have learned that cars are horrible investments. While that line of reasoning may work on mom's GMC Esquilax, there are a few cars that can actually give you a hearty return the longer you hold on to them. Your job is to find those cars with a $25k cap on price. Go forth and fetch these gems, my friends!

Here are the rules:

• One entry per post.

• Cars must have a realistic selling price under $25,000.

• Cars must be operable/easily restored to running condition.

• Completed and sold listings can be included.

• You can add modifications, as long as it doesn't go over the total budget.

• Write a short reason why your car is the best future classic for less than $25,000.

  Start here and find a car with a future valuation that will would make Dave Ramsey giggle.

  I'll arrange the best selections afterwards and it's possible your answer may be used on a new show we're working on at Jalopnik.
