We all give up our projects, one way or another, my concern will always be, is it going to a good home? There's many I wouldn't sell untill I was sure. I've built hundreds of cars trucks and motorcycles, every time I make sure it's going to someone deserving of all the love and care I put into those projects. Someday soon this will be me, with someone selling off my collection. It's the only way to preserve these vehicles! Sell them! Don't let them rot away in some forgotten barn untill they're not worth saving, let someone that loves them preserve them and keep the builder alive forever in a way.
Went to an estate sale and two daughters were selling their dads house with everything including the beer he had leftover along with a 66 nova and all kinds of go fast goodie hard to find stuff it was sad seeing this guys stuff he loved and collected his whole life being sold
Yes and your smoking ๐ฌ my dad smoked until he passed away from smoking its crazy people know they are killing them self by smoking but still do it ๐ข
People are broke and they are having to sell these cherries to make it. That man didn't wanna sell that car anymore than he wanted to lose his son. Bless his heart and may his son! A parent never wants to bury a child. ๐๐๐ผ
Bought a 71 challenge r 340 4 barrel pistol grip 4 speed in 1995 for 7m. It still had the space saver collapsible spare in the trunk. Engine was rebuilt and it had new RT rubber. I put new leather top on it and paid 8m for a friend to paint it B5 blue. It was just about done was working on replacing the dashboard and seat recovered. My family's men all all vet. My older brother bought a white 440 challenger 1970 in 1970! He loved that car especially after he saw Vanishing Point. He kept it nice for years! 2005 His shop burned to the ground! He was so upset! In 2015 He retired. I sent him my car as a gift on a transport. He tried to get me to take some money but i said nope its priceless. He got to Drive it a few years then he got Covid and passed. He did 20 yrs in USARMY an Detective work until he retired. Sent it to our youngest brother.
My sister went to Jesus and left me her Mini Cooper r53. I have 15000 in that ridiculous looking car because I love her and miss her so much. I look like a circus act getting out of that car because I'm 6'3. Best money I've ever spent.
His son died of throat cancer but the dude is sitting there out of breath smoking a heater. Probable 1 of the 2 packs a day he inhales. Something tells me the son smoked like a chimney too
I am sorry for your loss brother ๐ข
I hope you didnโt haggle him and just paid the price
Sad very sad thing for his father.
How much ๐ข
CANDY APPLE RED
Such a sad story. If only he could have driven it once. Complete his dream.
Dad, why are you smoking knowing your son died of throat cancer? I feel that is very disrespectful. Please quit in his memory.
30,000 and that's low
Like they said don't screw this dude don't do it man
