OK, OK, just the kind of positive advice I needed from the pros.
I did fail to mention I tried to find the bottom yesterday before I posted anything. I was very nice about it and told him that I did not want to offend him and said that I could offer him $30K for the car w/out all the docs. He was nice about it and said thanks but no thanks.
I will call today and raise the bar a notch as suggested, and then try to give a deposit.

Let you know later
Thanks again.
Mike

Mike, give him a call tonight, and tell him that you will give him 40k for it. Since he is the type of owner that keeps it, puts it up for sale, keeps it, and is unsure, give him the asking price and buy it. The longer you wait, the more time he has to think about wether he wants to sell it or not.

And before you know it somebody else has the car or worse, while you are jerking him around he starts telling other people about the guy who is lowballing his car and they tell him what its really worth and you end up paying 10grand more than you should of in the 1st place..

EXACTLY Sam...and you know that would happen too!

I think he knows if he REALLY wants to OWN the car,he's gotta step up to the plate and seal the deal.

OK< OK< I called him today on the 68 Z28 and he was out. I had to fly home today from Boston to Atlanta, and I will call him first thing in the morning and make him the 40K offer as all on the site has basically ordered me to do.
And if he takes it, I expect my new found investment partners to thelp me with what it needs (if anything) if and when it get it and can post pictures.
