Ahhh ... I would have to build a BIG additional garage (existing 2-car attached garage barely holds my 56 CP and 64 Beau) on our property (don't tempt me, we own the vacant lot next to our house), and I would have to get another draw on our home equity line of credit (why not, eh? first draw was for my wife's swimming pool) but I am thinking that the next big beautiful full-size 60's Canadian Pontiac with BBC 4-speed that Master Carl (who has renowned impeccable taste) decides to sell ... I will have to buy it. (I realize he has previously sold this one ...)

I don't know about you guys, but to me it's kind of sad to see this unique car being whored around in dealerland again. I can't understand why somebody doesn't just want to own and preserve this unique car.
This isn't aimed at board members here who have sold it, as I understand we all have important personal reasons for making these decisions, it just kills me to see it with all the typical dealer fluff trying to make as much money off it as possible, with the requisite "rare" comments along with caps and exclamation points - the only thing missing is "barn find"....
I have to agree with MC about these special interest dealers being old car whores. They add little, or nothing, to the hobby. In fact they probably are a detriment to us true hobbiests as they raise some peoples expectations and leave a bad taste in customers mouths.
