Mine was a 72 Cadillac Eldorado convertible, was cherry red with a white soft top and black leather interior. Ended up not buying it because there was a pin hole leak in the gas tank and I did not know the wonders of JB Weld at the time and thought I would have to replace the entire tank.

Ended up buying my CJ5 that once I moved to California I could not drive anymore due to the stupid DMV in both Louisiana and California, neither of which would register it. One due to not being able to pass smog the other due tot he fact I did not wanna pay New Orleans insurance on it. It is gone now, traded it for the ZX6.

 

A 1978 Camaro Drag car Converted to a Show Car. It was white with blue stripes, chromed out under the hood and pretty much immaculate. It was owned by my friends dad and he sold it for $2,600. Made me so sad that he let it go for that cheap. I would have bought it if I knew.

 

A 1970 Corvette, fully loaded, 454 4-speed....... turns out it was a limited edition, and are selling for north of 80 grand these days. I could have bought it for 3K......

 

A 98' dodge 2500 QCSB with the 24 valve they wanted $2800 for it less than a year ago, they said the only problem with it was the vp44 was out

Damn thing was worth every bit of 6k, mint outside and decent interior

 

1978 chev caprice classic 35,000 original miles in 1997. The nice old lady next door to my parents died and I had a chance to buy it for 1500$ bought a fuel efficient accord instead. accord died 3 years later from rust. I probably would still have that old beast. It would have close to 100000mi by now tho.

 

1971 Plymouth Duster Sedan with the 318/727 combo. Pretty car with older restoration and a great interior. Only wanted $3200 for it.

 

Last spring: 1979 Pontiac Trans AM. Gold with the black bird on the hood. 400 engine with a 4-speed. Guy wanted $2500, had just a bit of rust starting on the rocker... nothing serious.

I've wanted one for so long, still want one really bad. Kick myself alot for that, but it was buy that or fix the body and re-paint my truck. And I did the truck. If I hadn't done the truck it would have been beyond fixing this year it was rotting fast.
