Gimme A Bullet!

I`m so broke,wah wah wah....

Saturday I saw this`79 K/10 Suburban for sale at the local Park`n`Ride (used car lot on weekends).It was black and silver two-tone,looked pretty nice.So,I pull in to take a look,even though I can`t pay to play.The first thing I notice was a Colorado tag.Actually,the first thing I notices driving by was it had that paint with the hood silver and those bold stripes at the edges of the hood,as original.It`s nice all over inside out.Original red interior,no rust,shiney "original" paint...just extremely clean and apparently original.I`m getting excited,now.There`s just`79 Suburban and the phone number on the window,no price.For some dumb reason I call when I get home,leave message,go about my day.A few hours later the guy calls back.It has Colorado plates because he just brought it back from his parent`s summer home they sold where this thing sat in a garage.Those vinyl stripes looked new.They bought it in`81,garage kept,summer driven,50,000mile,400/TH400,posi,all original.ready to show.I asked what he would want for it.............................................................$3,500!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He said someone else had called but hadn`t committed.Man,I`m thinking who I can borrow the money from,searching my mind,considering jigalowing for some 80 year old woman...anything!! I drive back to town that evening and it`s gone.If I only had the money I`m used to having!That was such a no-brainer it ain`t funny.Somebody got a nice`Burb for a great price!!!!DANG!
