The Dealer really liked the care so he offered to sell me a Left Over '68 Shelby GT500 for the same price. Which was around $3,100. Great deal I thought, until I checked on insurance, $1,200 a year, as I was under 25. Couldn't afford the insurance and the car payment too so I passed on the deal and kept the '69. No way I would still have the car but it would be nice to say I owned one of those super cars.
My greatest heartaches are from a '67 XKE convertible (owned in '74) and a Challenger (owned in '76) OH YEAH... And My first car, a '71 Triumph GT6+... Kind of like the girlfriends you lost and wish you had back...
