I was heading home one night and saw a for sale sign in the window of a 1970 Dodge Charger RT/LE. I stopped to ask about the car, I have always wanted one and I still do. Well the drunk fellow who answered the door told me the judge was making him sell it, and it had to go that day, it was the last day of the grace period he was given. The price, $400. Well being a 17 year old kid, I didn't have the money but I called dad who said sure he would spot me. I told the fellow to sit tight and that I would be back within the hour. I raced home (literally, the 440 in my 67 newport was thumping the ground) and grabbed Dad and his checkbook. When I arrived at the fellows house, the car was gone. Seems that somebody had stopped by just after I left to get Dad, and dropped $4,000 on the hood......................SOLD.
Wasn't ment to be but I feel it was a missed opportunity.
