That bytes, considering the condition of the car. Sounds like they were just upping the price due to your previous ties to the car, regardless whether it was the wife or not.

Reminds me of the Fast and Loud episode when they tried to purchase that Jaguar coupe that held the Cannon Ball Run best time until they broke it. It was going to be junked and they bought it for like $200 for scrap, then Gas Monkey paid something like $5k for it. You're right, paying for a story.

There are a lot of IROCs out there for sale that would work, but still sorry you didn't get yours back.
