OP, like I said before look into local auctions (sherriff, public, and private). If your good with fixing cars look into wrecked vehicals (clean titles obviously bring more that salvage titles) You will find a range of many different cars, trucks, ect. I was able to make a good amount of cash when I was your age doing this. Yes, you might have to wake up extreamly early for an auction, but so what. Where do you think used car dealerships get their cars? Its a way to skip the middle-man and save a bunch of money.
