Default Re: 69 L78 Chevelle, original, unrestored except paint

Hey TDW (Tony) I feel your pain. About 8 or so years ago, I made a handshake deal on two cars, (one was mine, the other was a good friend's) with the owner of a certain large auction house. His buyer looked the cars over for hours, we agreed on a price for the pair, and shook hands with a phone confirmation form the auction house owner. Well, Sunday morning the car hauler shows up with two checks for $30k less than we agreed to---$15,000 per car. Needless to say, I told him to GTFO!!! I ended up paying my friend the agreed upon price for his car because that's how sure I thought the deal was. I didn't want his car, but I am a man of my word---unlike the person I refer to above.
