My dad bought a salvaged Bronco II with a stick shift that had rolled over a few times. He cut the crushed roof off of it and made my sister and I learn to drive it until we could shift incredibly smoothly. I was fifteen and she was right. He then let my friends learn as well, then he sold it for $50 more than he paid to a deer hunter.
I did the same with a $600 Toyota with 650k miles on it for my children.
