Default Is there an AA version for car-a-holics...??

Just bought another one....Have to travel over 12 hrs round trip to get it, but on of my favorite body styles AND a GASSER.... I already decided to get the 32 drivable and then sell it, so WTF....

'37 Chevy coupes were always one of my favorites. This is a '38, but the same exact car except for the grille. Plus this one has a one piece fiberglass front end that looks to be a 1937 repop.

Story is the father purchased this car to build as a gasser back in the '70's but died before finishing it. Been sitting in the garage since then. The daughter is selling it for the estate. I made an offer on it and she just called me and accepted my offer. The car is in Stone Mountain Ga so I have a long ride ahead of me....

Here's a few pics from the ad....

What a depressing post.... I personally dont give a flying fuk what my kid does with my stuff when Im gone. She is not into old cars at all. As long as I am enjoying life today! You sound like you already have one foot in the grave. I assume when you say your wife will be selling your vette you mean after youre gone. Id be damned if anyone would be selling my shit on me unless I was in a home.

If you have some ailment Im not aware of, then I understand your grief...but still, dont be such a downer in my happy bragging thread!
