He was going to give the Vettes owner $850.00 as a trade in on a 66 Dodge Charger.
My Dad came home on Friday and told me all about it, and the guy was going to come back on Monday to finalize the deal.
Longest weekend ever for me, that's for sure.
Well the guy came back on Monday and said that after thinking it over, he decided to keep his Vette since it wasn't worth any more than $850.00.
Needless to say, I was more than a little disappointed.
FP I'd hate to see ya get rid of your Crossfire, but it looks like you're assembling a nice little collection of some highly desirable cars, so good luck with your plans.
Thanks Mike. This has been my favorite Vette. I'm hoping it works out. Can you imagine getting a Vette of this vintage for $850?
