Many years ago I went to a house to pick up an old jigsaw I bought from a guy in the want ads. When I got there he wasn’t home so the lady of the house opened the garage door and there was a complete TR-3 with the sliding windows, everything. Very dusty. Leather in great shape.
Of course I asked to look at it and she says, ‘Sure!’
I said you wanna sell it?
Yes!
How much?
$1500.
$1500? Does it run?
Runs great.
She started it right up. So I go to my car to get the checkbook which, I found out, I had left at home. I NEVER leave home without my checkbook. So I said I’ll be right back with my checkbook.
‘OK. I’ll get the manuals and gather up whatever else we have (like the tonneau cover). Etc.
So I run back checkbook in hand. Knock on the door. Lady answers.
‘Sorry. Not for sale.’ And she glances back at her husband. ‘We changed our minds.’
