It's hard to find any 60' or 70's cars in junk yards anymore. ( at least not for "junk" yard prices ) This isn't the 80's anymore when the yards were packed with 60's and 70's stuff.

So, I often wonder about how the later model cars would work as "dime rockets".

There are a bunch in the junkyards and on craigslist for cheap. Nobody wants a 20 plus year old EFI car because new cars get better every year. So these older cars are super cheap and some are still in good running condition.

The one combo that stands out to me ( because I am a Ford guy) is the 96-98 Mustang GT.
I would say a stick combo would be the easiest to get to run under index even with the stock trans.
