ADVICE - Project Car

Hi All,

I am looking for looking for some sort of car that I can learn to modify/fix. To keep it short and sweet, see below for my general requirements:

  • Budget: $5k
  • Basic car that is perfect for a complete newbie to learn to work on
  • Car that has space for me to sleep in (155cm tall)
  • Can handle flat road trips about 2-3hours in Victoria

INFO ABOUT ME: I’ll welcome all advice! - I have zero tools and zero car skills lol (I’m literally just a girl) - where do I even begin to get into this sort of hobby that won’t cost me an arm and a leg - any basic tools I should get to start?

Thank you!!
