Oppurtunity missed


OK, here's the sad story of the day.
I had a lead on a 68SD396 4speed, had a phone # to call last fall, and misplaced it. I found the number a couple of weeks ago, and called the guy tonight. The car sold 2 months ago.weirdface  The  seller said he only got a couple of calls, from NS, and nobody even came to look at the car!According to him, the bodywork was all done, just needed painting. Now I don't know if the 396 was the original engine, and I didn't ask.
There is a slight glimmer of hope. The buyer is relatively local to the seller, so I'm going to see if i can go look at the car and talk him out of it. biggrin

There's a bit of hope. I talked to the guy that had the Beaumont-traded it to another guy for a pro streeted 72 Z28. He gave me the guys name and number, and seems pretty sure that the guys not going to keep it.
I'll kepp the updates coming.

Here's some pics of the 68SD that I missed out on, but may still have a chance at. The guy that had it gave me the name and phone # of the guy he traded it to, and says he doesn't think the guys going to keep it.
The quest continues....
