The Find

So my main resource was Craigs List. There were a ton to choose from with varying price tags . Then I found one that piqued my interest.. 79 Camaro Z28 with T Tops, 80% restored... price was right, most of the restoration was done, it came with a majority of the original parts, along with a shit load of extras. I emailed the seller, wanting to know more, see pictures (fearing the worst). The email from him arrived, I was scared to open it. My eyes widened, my wife was shouting "show me, show me!" I turned the computer screen to show her.. her first words were "it's a shell, it has no doors!". She lost interest in it and went back to her phonecall, as I studied the pictures, in awe of a fantastic paint job, seeing the potential in it, imagining the car shows. I emailed the seller straight back, saying I was definately interested and could I arrange a time to meet him and view everything. We arranged to meet on a Sunday afternoon. My wife reluctantly agreeing to come with me, me hoping that this viewing would make her more enthusiastic about my project! Lee, the seller was a great guy. Knew the car inside out, I don't think an inch of that car had not been touched by his hands. We spent 2 hours going over every part of it, Lee explaining to me what he'd done, how he'd done it, why he'd done it. I couldn't have asked for a more informed seller. He told me to go away and think about it. Within 3 feet of our farewell handshake, my mind was made up! I wanted that car and I wanted it now!
