Everyone thinks their junk is worth way more than it is. I looked at a "barn find" 64 Corvette convertible L75 in North Carolina that was on Facebook marketplace that some flipper acquired recently. In the pics car looked decent. He represented it as in very good condition. Wouldn't tell me a price over the phone, only said it was well below market value. That should have been the end of it there, but it was only 45 minutes away so I got guy that is looking for one for me to do, and we went there. Car turned out to be a total basket case. Wrong motor and transmission, stress cracks throughout the fiberglass, everything would need to be replaced or restored. Since my guy wants a restomod we figure maybe we can get this fairly cheap. Nope, guy was asking 35K!!!!! for it. Unreal. We said good luck and left. Turns out a friend knows of the car and what this guy paid for it. Poor old woman was going into a nursing home. Car had been her deceased Husband's. It had been sitting on the farm for years, he gave $5500 for it.
This isn't the first time I've looked at a raggedy old Vette and the Owner thinks the thing is gold. Why is that?
