Re: What would you do?
Well I'm a guy that has a lot of these old trucks Yes they sit and just keep going up in price.I remember not to long ago.I knew of a guy that had a 24 acre lot in the Outer hills of riverside headed in to redlands.This guy had over 1500 car's and trucks there where out in the weeds just rotting He has 1970 Cuda's a few chargers a few road running over 25 1955-57 T birds and 30 to 100 1950--59 chevy coup car's 2 doors.Later on i found out that Hollywood had a car lot or property they stored old car's on.
I've getting a few people leaving notes on my gate about a few that i own and at this moment I'm not hurting for the money so i can let it sit.
Now I've told this to people until i was red in the Face Convince me that i don't need that car or truck.I have a Mock up 1971 nova with a 1968 396 with 400 in it for floor shifter with factory big block AC unit on the firewall in a bag and its brand new rebuilt it has buckets disc brakes.the only 3 things that it dose not have that would make this a real find it a 12 bolt posi a tack and tilt.
Remember this is not a SS car and nova stop putting big blocks in there Novas in 1970.
I did have a guy that bugged the hell out of me for my 1967 camaro plain Jain 327 with a 3 speed on the floor nothing else was a option.He bugged me for the better part of 1 year.Even after i told him i wanted 9000.00 he told me it was only worth 5000.00.
Thats why convince me that i don't need that car or truck.If you hate seeing something rot then step up to the plate and over spend.Then the guy wont worry that you wont turn it in to one of these projects that you butcher up or never finish.If you have 5000.00 into it before you even take a wrench to it you will appreacht more in the long run
