Default Best bargain cars you've bought

I was just wondering what the best deal anyone here has got when they've got themselves a car.

I'll start, although I'm sure others have got better bargains...

My 1976 Mk II Escort 2.0 GL 4 door Ghia with rallye pack options (front and rear spoiler mainly) cost me a grand total of $50, along with the swap of a dead 1982 Nissan Pulsar. It didn't have an exhaust (well, the extractors had been removed and the 2.5" exhaust pipe it had I seriously doubt would have passed RWC), and the engine had started to be dismantled. It also had some rust which needed to be repaired in the footwells, and needed 4 new tyres. But asides from all that, it was in fairly good condition (I've had to fix a few other things since then, can't remember everything off the top of my head), and I think it was a bargain.

Anybody else care to tell us about the bargains they've got? Psycho Chicken, I know you've got a beauty to add to this thread.
