Default Could of should of major regrets (car focus)
I will start....
This weekend a local person to me posted a 69 corvette convertible for sale. FRESH 355 and 4 speed, rebuild rear, new side pipes, TMI seats. Body repaint in the 80s would need a redo but totally passable. Sitting on Coilovers, Birdcage mint new white top wilwood brakes all around..
sold 20K.

a few months ago, 73 corvette convertible bone stock 53k miles sitting for 25 years SOLD 11K also local to me..

i hesitated and lost on both.. and I SOOOOOO regret it..

Wish I would have installed a 3” exhaust from the beginning. Went with a lsa supercharger offset for more pulley options. Bought a truck as a daily driver instead of a car

Not buying a 69 Camaro or 70 Chevelle back when they could be bought for $3k in great shape.
