The Great White Buffalo Chase
Today I took a Colt Revolver that I sold down to my favorite GFun Dealer in LV for shipping.... I coulda shipped it to his FFL Dealer in CA directly via Fed Ex for $12 ....and saved him a bunch of dinero....but nooooo!
Anyway thats not the point of this little story....while I am at the gun shop I am looking around t see what the guy has thats interesting....A nice pre series 70 NM in 45 Acp for $950 , a nice Winchester model 61 in immaculate shape...for $425 and a NM Garand that looks like it has barely even been fired....hooo haaa a NM Garand for just under $2000 out the door....yeah baby come to poppa thats a $2500 rifle.
He also got in 20 HK AR15 30 round mags.....the last 10 that he got went right to Iraq.....so I bought me 3 of those ...and they ain't cheap a $65 each....but they is the snaze....
So I'm drivin homeward with all smiles thinkin about whether I should Buffet or not to Buffet when I spot this White 356 Coupe parked in a guys driveway amongst abunch of other Muscle cars.....So I screech the brajkes make a Uie and stop and get out to look and it's HOT....it turned out to be a White 1960 356B Coupe...if U boyz recall I had a thread about a 356B that I had seen previously in LV....so I was about to get in my truck when a young guy in the house calls me over and says that all these cars are for sale Among the cars was a 69 Charger Daytona with front and rear spoilers in full NASCAR race trim, a couple of convertible Camaros, a AMX. a 429 Torino and a coupla cars I just didn't pay any attention to..... the young guy calls his Dad and he says he's bin offered 13.5K and 14K on the 356 by a couple of Porsche Sharks and he wants 16 or 17K for the car.. the car has a respray, and needs rubber and rechroming...and the body appears straight....the owner says it runs real good..someone had pulled the carpets up to look at the floor pans and they looked A OK to me....
Anyway Dad tells me he has a 72 and 73 911S's a 356 Cab and a 82 SC Cab......the 72 S has 20,000 miles and the 73 has 101,000 miles.....hooo haaa does ne want to sell...NOOOOOO.....he says what is he going to do with the money....he doesn't need it......Oh well I left the name and number if he should change his mind.. so it turns out to be jsut another day on the the Great White Buffalo trail....
