Ummm... please ignore previous message .. I DID buy it !!!
O M G ! ( as the hip youngsters say in their SMS's & emails ! ... for those of you who are wondering, it means Oh My God !)
Well ... I pick it up on Saturday.
The owner listed it on Ebay and the pics and description just fuelled my "want" for this vehicle too much ... plus the fact he dropped it to $10,000 ! ( not bad considering when I first found it it was listed at $18,000 !)
Why ? ... he found a pick-up that he really wanted for $12,000.
After I called him today to ask some more questions about it and found out it had -
1. reconditioned Olds 350 (I knew this one )
2. new rochester 4bbl Carb
3. new 2.25inch single system exhaust
4.new ball joints
5. new shockers
6. Interior in Very good condition
7. "Rally" wheels with Olds centres
8. needs little if anything for a Road Worthy Certificate
I SMS'd him that I had $10k and he called the guy with the pick-up and the guy agreed to sell him the vehicle for $10k cash ... so he figured its a swap for him whether its 10 or 12 grand ... so I win the Vista for $5000 less than we first talked about. WOW !
I will be in touch with more when it is in my shed !
cheers all
