Default Re: Worst buying or selling decision!!

In 1979...I went to look at a T/A 340 six pack Challenger that was being sold by the original owner. It was a root beer-ish brown color and he was selling it because he had started a family. He wanted either $3200 or $3500...but I ended up getting a 6 cylinder Nova instead (family didn't think it was wise for me to have the car) The car was perfect in every way...

Also, within a year of that...I spotted a 69 Trans Am on the used car lot of a Buick dealer in Westminster, Ca. The price on the window was ~$3300... I called my brother Gary, and by the time we got back up there it was gone

There was a white with blue top 1967 Camaro convertible that was always parked at Gemco near our house. I used to laugh because it had a metallic blue nose stripe and blue interior...and I "KNEW" that they never came that way (Yeah right). I often wonder what happened to that car?

Finally, there was a green 1969 RS/SS 396 for sale on a used car lot at the corner of Lincoln and Brookhurst for $2500...didn't get that one either
