anong classic car na magandang i-restore? I mean I don't want to spend so much money, just something na pwedeng pampalipas oras.

VW na beatle kaya? or any Benz old model na two door? or meron bang magandang Japanese cars na ok i-restore?

it's not going to be a DIY project ha. ipapagawa ko probably for mechanical eh tatawag ako ng mechanics for home service.

a VW would be a wise and easy choice like Type 1 (Beetle), Type 2 (bus, kombi), Type 3, brasilia. Another choice would be Austin Mini or mini cooper. For Benz 190E is good but bloody to restore. For jap cars ther are many. Lancer boxtype, Corolla DX, Celica, Etc.

I don't know if you can consider my choices as classics:

Euro - old Benz or MG or an old M3 (probably E30 or older)

Jap - siguro Nissan Fairlady Z or Celica, both circa '70s

American - Muscle cars I guess

and of course the Beetle.

First generation BMW M3.
American muscle cars, particularly the Mustang, Camaro, GTO and Charger. Technically the Challenger is also good, but never did quite like it as much as the others.
Nissan Fairlady Z, Toyota Sports 800 or 2000GT.

But most of all?

Classic Italian cars. the old Lancia's, Alfa's, etc. Probably virtually impossible in this country, unless you have loads of cash, but by the heavens they do look beautiful. That and more unique than the other typical classics out there.
