1971 BALDWIN MOTION CAMARO

I know we're splitting hairs here, but, NOTHING is a "find" when it is advertised in Hemmings. That car was for sale for a month before it even hit Hemmings. As far as someone announcing to the world that they are interested in a car, or, are "first in line", until a deal is signed & paid for, IMO an advertised car is open game. I have had friends tell me they were interested inan advertised car. If I was also interested, we either " worked it out", or at least agreed not to get into a bidding war. If someone wants to see pictures, or, make arrangements to go see a car, and someone else is willing to pull the trigger, what can you do? In the end, it is only a car, and, there is always another one. Problem is, on the really good deals, one has to move fast or take a back seat. Maybe sad, but, true. I still don't think you can get mad at someone who is in a position to do a deal on the spot. That particular car would have been sold to several people [me included] within 48 hours no matter what. Better that a "friend" get it than a stranger. That's just how I view it.
