One of my regrets was in the early '90s I looked at a survivor silver blue '64 conv. Negotiated the price down to $18k. I don't know why in the world, but I changed my mind at the last minute. It was a great car, good paint, top, interior, running/driving, etc...

Another '64 was sold at silent auction locally. It was all there but in boxes. Someone had started a resto and stopped. I had already restored 2 of them and knew it was complete, etc...The winning bidder got it for $10k. Bolted some of the pieces back together and flipped it on ebay for $30k. I mean he did hardly any work to it. Just put bumpers back on it, seats in it, etc..
