Most of the stuff on ebay is overpriced for what I'm looking at: an old school mini. early 70's production if possible, I'd like to keep it under the 3 or 4k mark if possible. Ebay seems a little overpriced, all people who have done something in one way or another to the car.

I'd just like something to tool around with, preferably running, but not absolutely necessary. Anyone got advice of where to look for a decent bargain? Swap-meets? Junkyards? Local classifieds? Auto shows?
