Re: Svx wanted

I fear that anything with low mileage now is a bit of a project car. The first thing needed on a low mileage SVX is a major service, followed by all the usual other issues to address. I'm starting to wonder if the sweet sport is around 150K miles (major service done, transmission replaced, etc.) and just expect to get 50K out of it with just oil/tires/brakes for maintenance.

I also wonder about picking up a low mileage car, then paying $10K-$15k to have it restored/resto-moded by some company.

I'm currently working on a 1992 with 37K miles on it. By time I have the car I deserve, I will probably have spent $15K on it.... I wonder if there is a market for $15K-20K SVXs? If so I would pick up a few and have them all restored/restomoded together (economies of scale..?).

Good luck!
