Went To Look At A '72. It Was A '73!!
I drove 50 miles to go look at a truck that was listed as a '72. It ended up being a '73. The guy said that it was listed as a '72 on the registration. That was a waste of my time.

Don't feel bad. I went to look at a 69 Camaro last year. It was a 79 Firebird.....

I went and looked at a 75 that a local school teacher thought was a 72.I told him it was not a 72 like he listed in the paper.His reply was "oh?" I got the feeling he didn't care.I didn't have to drive that far but it was still a waste of time.
