    Thanks Phil,
    I appreciate it. You might be able to pick up my old car cheap...I know Ernie won't know what to do to fix it up, and will probably try to unload it to cut his "losses." Dan

    That's how I got my Grand Prix. I put a bid in on Wednesday, which tripped the reserve, and then NOBODY put another bid in between then and Sunday.

    I hadn't sold my Model A yet, so I called my wife in the living room on that Saturday night and said "honey, we may have a problem here..." :Brow:

    Congrats.

    I'll update my signature once I've got it in my driveway. I got word that they received the money, so now I'm just waiting to hear from the shipper. I've used them before with great results:Nationwide auto transport. They use independents. This one will cost 595.00 door to door, which isn't bad considering fuel prices. I couldn't drive a trailer and get it for that. They said that they need a 48 hour lead time. I initially scheduled it for pick up on the first, but they moved the schedule up, once I told them the seller had the dough.
    It's funny, but the folks at work got all excited about it. They would all love to own a neat old car, but can't or won't, so they live vicariously through me. I've told them all that I'll help them find a nice affordable preferably BUICK musclecar and help them with the upkeep, but so far, no takers...Dan

    Well,
    It was supposed to be here a week ago, but the shippers couldn't contact the driver, so they gave the job to another driver. I am hoping to get it in the coming week. If not, I might get SORE. Dan
