I got this note on my windshield

[Paul G]

There have been several left on my cars' windshields over the years but I've never called the people who left the notes. 
Only one ever bugged me and it was some dentist from Mason City, IA hinting that he could afford to restore the car and take care of it properly.  Would like to have kicked him in the 'nads.

   What a blow to the ego.

i had bought a 69 road runner out of dallas several years ago as i was hauling it home i had no less than three people chase me down the interstate and roll windows down asking if it was for sale, got it home called a buddy in nebraska to tell of my purchase and he says he would send a truck down to pick it up i thought he was joking a week later a semi shows up with a driver with a wad of cash and regrettably it left and went to nebraska. the guy that bought it owns a trucking cmpany and had a reefer truck making a delivery here and no load going back so it got loaded into a reefer trailer for the ride back.

Took my nephew out yesterday in the R/T. Stopped at Subway for a sandwich and had a guy try to buy it before we even got through the line. A lot of times I get asked but almost no one has money or knows what it's worth so the conversation ends rather quickly. This guy has a 70 RR already and says "I can afford it - I just can't find one". Didn't want to tell him I had extras because I've sold about all I want to sell.

I have a basic reply for the "Window shoppers" that all want to buy it cheap and flip my junk in this economy....



"Whatever your thinking you can get it for, Add $20K to it and we gotta deal"...

This usually helps find out just how badly they REALLY want a General Lee......

Paul G - I think you should call but be honest with the guy - tell him you're not looking to sell because you just got everything done but as most other people say - everything is for sale for the right price...     who knows - if he offers you 1.5x what your investment is maybe you would be motivated to sell ---    my point is you'll always wonder until you call the guy...    I've told people that it's "not for sale" - and some drop it - but the ones who are persistant come up with some big dollars on occasion...    I was offered $18,500 for my Charger back when....     it was in its 318 / auto stage...     this was back in 2004. I said "sorry man it's my first car and i'm really not looking to sell it" - his original offer had been $10,000....

I started using basically the same strategy, When someone asks if I'll sell my 68, I tell them to come up with their best offer, and then add roughly 14k for the parts I have for it.

My friend caught people jumping my fence (in Texas, how stupid can you be ) into my yard to look at my charger. When my friend confronted them they were trying to open the doors and they had the hood open. I keep the sixpack in my garage because I am paranoid. He told them they were idiots and why the hell were they in my yard and touching my car. They immediately told him they would buy my V code 4 spd car for 3000. He laughed at them and said it's not his and worth way more than that anyway. They said some insulting comments and left. He caught people three times. Who knows how many he didn't catch.

When I moved to El Paso I wasn't able to take my Mach 1 at first. I had it shipped a year later. The driver unloaded my car and I drove it back to post. I had three people offer to buy my car in one day!

The way I get people to walk away now is by telling them that I will sell the car for twice what it is worth. When they ask how much that is, and I tell them. They look at me like I am crazy and walk away. Problem solved.  If they really want to pay that much for one of my cars, I would definitely sell.

Not long after I got my first 68, I was in a pub having lunch admiring my newly painted Charger in the carpark as I watched a guy give the car a thorough check over, paying extra attention to the underbelly, especially around the quarters. I thought he knew Chargers, and was looking for the typical rust areas.

He left a note on the windscreen. I was a little flattered he liked my car so much. When I was finished and headed back to the car, there were a couple of other people perving over it. I picked the windscreen note off which read "You have a fuel leak". Sure enough, the fuel sender was leaking.
