i had a mazda 323 years ago that i bought at a tow yard for 50 bucks, the thing ran like a top and used gas like an electric lawn mower! lol! any how i bought it to get to work for a month while my burban was in the shop getting a new set of gears and some paint, well i got the truck back and didnt have room for the mazda, so i put a 4 sale sign on it. i had a few offers but this kid kept bugging me to sell it to him everyday after work! he said he was getting his license in a month and he needed a car to move to l.a. i didn't buy his story until i saw his lic the day he got it, and he offered me 500 for it. i wanted 1000$, he then offered me 550, then 600 then 700, at 700 he started to cry and give me a sob story that he wanted to meet his dad for the first time in 17 years and needed a car to start fresh down there. he pulled out 650 cash stuffed it in my hand and told me to count it. he said he could borrow 50 bucks from a friend down the street and ran back with 50 more green ones in his fist screaming, i got it, i got it! so off he went in the little white mazda with 300 bucks worth of reg and smog work and a fresh tank of gas. i told him to change the fluids before he went to l.a. and he said he would and that he would always keep the car in good care. like i gave a crap, lol.... well about 6 months later i got a notice in the mail from a tow yard in san diego stating that there was a lien on the car and it would be sold at auction in 45 days..... ha! he got his moneys worth i guess!!
i never forgot that car, best running 50 dollar car i ever had
