Default Re: Cars you DID NOT BUY.

----There are literally 100s of cars I should have bought as Corvettes and muscle cars were my business for so long, but theres one that sticks in my mind from a long time ago. In 1969 I was working at a used car lot in Ft. Liquerdale called "Car City, the walking mans friend". We used to buy all of "King Oldsmobiles" trade-ins under $500 and we financed our own cars right at the lot. We went to King to pick up a couple of cars one day and there was a baby blue/white gut and top 64 GTO convertible with every available option sitting there for $400. My boss picked it up and I drove it back to our lot. The car was in exceptionally nice original condition with the exception of a poorly done enamel paint job. The boss said that I could have the car for the 4 bills. Still don't know why I didn't buy it.....Bill S
