Default Mantra

play... rewind... repeat: "Listen to Greg! Listen to Greg! Listen to Greg!"

You did a good thing by walking away from the 71 'bird... they're cursed anyway!

I guess you already have your hands full with the current 71 "Twist". One at a time is plenty.

Sure hope a raffle goes in play for it too.

Listen to Greg letting that car go was the best thing you ever did.
Trust me I replace the back half of camaros and Gto's all the time. These cars rot bad and half if not 3/4 are bondo dressed buckets.

Doesn't seem to need much, that shifter is really nice, but I think it's priced too high for not being a Formula etc...

Ok now that is a decent looking car. I'm sure it's not perfect but a good driver.

WTF IS TO PONDER -- get your sorry azz out there and drive it and buy it! Offer $13K - Settle at 14K if you have to... get there fast if that thing is half as good as it looks it's going to be gone.

LoL. Listening to all your advice has me being extra cautious. Plus, I've been reading Investing 102, and thinking maybe I should put the $ into investments.
I'm going to see it this Saturday. It's a 4hr drive one way. I asked the guy if the car is dependable enough for me to drive it home (giving him the clue I want it) and he said the car runs but I should probably tow it back. That worries me, a 4hr drive isn't much. He wouldn't say anything else, just that the car is still a project and I would have to see it. Maybe it just needs a carb tune, guess I'll find out.
