The Hemi That Got Away... (New Home)

[BIRD67]

Well, before we got the Firebird, there was a 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T convertible I wanted to get, however, it had literally 50 different shades of paint and there were no floors.. The car had no engine or transmission, but it did have an 8 3/4 rear end.. The guy wanted $12k for it... My stepdad thought it was too far gone.. Last I heard, it was originally a Plum Crazy car with a white interior, 440 4 barrel and 727 T-flite from the factory and was now down in Florida for a nut and bolt restoration..

Then, there was a pretty nice '71 Mustang Mach 1, it was a solid car and it ran great, had a 351 4 speed, but it had a big crack in the passengers side rear quarter panel, which made us question if it was really all that solid..It was Light Blue Metallic with silver stripes, magnum 500's and a ram air hood.. the guy wanted $11,500 for it..We passed

back in 95 I coulda traded a 70 Charger R/T I had for an original General Lee. I shoulda but didn't. I'm still kicking myself over that.

Back in my school days I took a friend to go check out a 62 Impala SS 409 dual quad 4 speed conv, for 300.00.  It was Roman red and in perfect original low mile condition.  This was about 1975 ish and I didn't have the 300.00 at the time.  My (X) buddy bought the car behind my back for the 300.00.  Then 6 months later sold it for the same 300.00 without letting me know.   The guy sucks.
