By the time it shows very little rust,there`s usually a lot more behind it.

In illinois a serious car guy would consider that a slap in the face big bills or small offering 1/2 the asking price? I would close my garage door and kindly ask you to leave.
It may however work on someone that has never seen 5000 or more in cash??

true but its easier to change options like brakes, power steering,a cowl hood,rather than to fix up a rusted heap for cheaper!
buy a classic for the condition of the body and frame, not the seats or the motor etc.. they can be changed fairly easily!
Put a rear spoiler,cowl induction hood, and a set of buckets in that camaro and it would be an easy 15 k car if its as clean as it looks!
