For a starter classic car pick a popular one with a lot of solutions out there on internet forums, ideally a decent aftermarket or used parts supply. There is a reason why so many people say to just buy a Miata. That poojoe was pretty common so there should be a lot of information out there.
The massive upside of classic cars is that all of the issues have already been discovered. If the solutions are there on the forums already and parts are available, there is basically nothing that can stop you.
Also, buy a relatively good condition model, it will be too daunting to catch up on 30 different deferred maintenance items or do an involved restoration on your first classic car. You want to only deal with major issues one at a time as they come up.
For long term, its best to try and stick with a brand or model you like so you dont have to keep re-learning new things, and can interchange old parts you have lying around.
