At least that's how I hope it goes.

The car seems way too nice to pass up. No harm tucking it away for a little while until you finish the big block car.

A few weeks ago, the owner told my father-in-law he wanted 47 in cash. That seemed nuts. Way overboard on price and I would have to be insane to be flying around with a briefcase filled with cash. That made it real easy to just say forget it to the Z28.

But.......he called my father-in-law today and told him he might be OK with the 35 and that the tenants he has were using the car to hang their laundry on it, on top of the car cover. He asked if I could call him tomorrow. He sounds like he is going back and forth depending on his mood.
