Knowing the kind hearted folks on here, I'm not the only one who has gone the other way.
We had a really cool Trans Am. It was fun, T-tops and everything. Spend all day Saturday getting it running so we can drive it to a Barbecue on Sunday.
A young guy came to look at it and while talking, I discovered this would be his only car and his daily driver.
I BEGGED the kid not to buy it. Explained, "It's one thing to vapor lock on a nice Sunday drive. Quite another to vapor lock when you are late for work." I told him I'd hold it for a day so he could sleep on it.
Next day, he comes back and had his dad with him. I was relieved he would get a second opinion, and they did buy the Trans Am.
Best part of the story? I still have their phone number and when I clean out the garage and find a random part for the car, I call them and they come for the part, always driving that Trans Am.
Good times. . .
