Guys, I m on my way out of town to finish up some work for my folks when I get a text, a pix of an old car. I pull over. Then a message , Hey, elderly lady wants to sell a car if your interested. Got her number and called, she was only 5 minutes away and I had time. Went immediately. This is what she had, a 68 GTX, 440 , auto , one owner car. Brother had bought in new in 68, he passed three years ago, been sitting in her yard for eight years. I bought the car, I think, or I thought. She wanted me to wait one day before I took it. Very attached. Would take no money at that time. Said come back tomorrow. Went on with my day.
That afternoon, piddling at the house, wondering if I was going to get the car or she was going to back out, a guy pulls up I had talked with months ago about buying a Camaro i had. No call, he just came over. Bought the Chevy.
I have never bought and sold a car in the same day, much less, buying or selling in a day that I had no prior knowledge or plans to do either. None the less, we made the deal the next day and I am happy to have this one owner 68 with me
