One reason this seems like a steal to me: https://dallas.craigslist.org/dal/cto/6144219436.html
For $250 more you can get a car that isn't even driveable!—John

Kinda makes me feel like a jerk for not snagging a clean '91 GMQ that was local here for $400. It was straight but had a broken window, needed a fuel pump and I think a tire or two. Hell for a grand it would've been a runner but I have a storage issue as well. My wrecked car sat in my mom's driveway for like 8 months before I got it out of there so I don't really want to start that all over this soon.

Foxbody stangs are about as rare as pebbles on a beach IMO. I also think rare does not mean high price. My Fury could be considered "rare" but to me it's just your average family car that is still around. I think the problem is one guys wheels & deals his car for 10 grand so the next man sees this and thinks he can do the same, now the whole market is tainted by inflated price tags. Foxbody stangs... LoL 6k+ for 230hp......... Take this for example, trying to find dad a C4 corvette. IMO the only years to have a 1990-'91 or 1996. '91 being the best & last year for the conventional 350 and first year for revised styling. '90 netting you old body style if that's what you prefer. However, 1996 was last year for the LT1 and the c4 so in theory it's got the best engineering possible for the platform so that's what would get me to throw down 10g+ on one of those yet you've got assholes selling their shitty '84 for $14k or more... I could see someone who just wants a vette and has neglected to do their homework getting swindled...1985 LTD Crown Victoria - SOLD

Foxbodies themselves may still be ubiquitous, but try finding one in good shape, with no modifications (or tasteful, properly done mods), and a non-hacked/rednecked wiring harness. That's where things are getting rare. And it's why nice examples are really climbing in price.
Makes me wish I had more money and storage space so I could snatch up nice deals when they come along before the flippers get to them. There's a really nice 1991 CV on the Dallas craigslist right now that originally was for sale up in Denton by a guy who just wanted it gone. He ended up dropping the price to $500 with an ultimatum that he would donate it if it wasn't gone by the weekend. I couldn't come up with $500 cash in time, so some guy from Arlington snatched it up. Lo and behold, that same care then appeared on craigslist in Arlington with an asking price of $3200. Bastards.—John
