What is this?
Early in April 2009, two young entrepreneurs will set out from San Diego, CA to show the country that people don’t need a bailout to get a car. Chris Hedgecock and Jorge Gonzalez, founders of the website CarsForaGrand.com, have purchased a car from the website for $899 and will drive from San Diego to Miami to prove you can buy a reliable car without financing
The car is a 1974 Pontiac LeMans, purchased for $899.89 on February 26, 2009. To make sure the car was safe and road-worthy, $200 was invested in parts like belts, spark plugs, and a much needed oil change. The car was purchased from CarsForaGrand.com, a website that only features used cars under $1,000.
Chris and Jorge’s journey can be followed at http://www.carsforagrand.com/road-trip/ where daily updates will be posted including pictures and video. The entire trip is expected to last 14 days barring a major incident (fingers crossed!)
Stay tuned for daily updates and videos!

they didnt buy that car on this website, they bought the car, THEN started this website, wioth the premiss of “we did it, so can other people”, but EVERY ad links to an ebay auction. you wont find a vehicle for a 1000 or less here, just endless ebay auctions, good luck tho.
