That kind of money will get you in at the rougher third of the Austin-Healey MK 3000 market.

I passed on a beautiful example for $10K about 30 years ago. Big mistake.

'73 Z28. Custom model for the year, and the split front bumper sets it apart from the pack in terms of looks.

Most any Chevelle would do for a consolation prize.

Link to bitchin' blue one with racing stripes @ $38k:

Still affordable (I've seen exceptional examples under $45k), rare, cool as shit and will do nothing but gain in value.

I'd rather have something new and quick like a 1LE or ZL1 Camaro, but I've always had a soft spot for the 1970 Olds W-30 cars.

Something like this.

If I wasn't severely cash strapped I'd try to find a way to buy it. If my dad wasn't also beyond busy right now, I'd go fishing for him to buy it.

I think 45k would cover most of a Shelby Cobra replica, either have it built or buy used

That's where I was about to go with the '72 you posted. Mach 1 "tribute".

Puts a pretty serious cap on upside appreciation, but a lot of enjoyment if you're buying it for a weekend cruiser

IIRC ther eis a 69 camero in black and orange locally for 18k. looked ok, but Im not into old muscle.

I’m a simple man and would like a 65 Mustang Coupe.
45k would get me the car and money left to make it sing.
I’d pull the stock drivetrain and wrap it up.  New drivetrain would be a pro street setup with a mild turbo build -650-700ish on e85 5 speed 9in etc.  
Ice cold AC for the Win!!
I’ve already done the 68 Camero but let it get to wild to enjoy.
