Default Re: Auction, old Chevrolet cars w/super low mileage

You're right,but the story goes that he was an extremely savy new car dealer.
When new car customers came with a trade in,he took their used vehicles to a nearby farm he owned and stored them there...forever,never to be resold.
He wanted to sell new cars,not used,as the profit margin was greater for him,and he didn't have to worry about warranting used cars either.
That's the way his mind worked.
A few brand new & low mileage vehicles,like the '58 Cameo were delivered to him and were never titled.It's reported they needed some work done due to damage during delivery and were eventually neglected by him as time wore on.
He was an extremely small dealership.
