Any Regrets Selling A Vehicle?

[Grumpy]

  I guess it could have been worse if you passed on a Shelby Cobra 427.

I was in the process of buying a 427 Cobra in 1972. Day before I was suppose to pick it up my 70 Mustang Cobra Jet car was stolen. Got pissed off an passed on the Cobra. Fast forward...Boug ht the same car in 1976 for lots more $$$$.

How about the 1 you should have bought?
For me it was a 63 split window fuel injected 4 speed vette. I passed on it for 2795 C and paid 2995 C for a 70 duster 340.

I didn't buy a '68 Camaro (back in highschool days) for $400-$800 because it had a noisy throwout bearing....

I bought a 2010 Camaro SS (LS3/6 speed manual) from Al Unser the 3rd. Took that bitch to the cutout of 155. Lost my discount with Progressive's plugin device, but so worth it. God I miss that car.

I've regretted most vehicles that I let go of. Most recently a built '94 Trans Am that I traded for an '85 Silverado 454, but I've always wanted and old squarebody. I miss letting go of my '10 Camaro SS too. Both GNs are forever in my happy memories, but the first the most.

True regret has been every time I got rid of a truck for a car. Always a stupid idea to not own a truck.

Finally figured out posting pics, DUH  Original 65 427 Cobra.

We paid a visit to see the car a few weeks ago. Ended up with a lot of other rare early Shelbys.

All the cars are registered. He had our old car on the end so we could take it out for a drive.. Then he said to take anything he had there if we wanted. NO WAY could I do it.. Car def went to a cool new home.

All the cars are historic. First and last cars produced. 1st "R" Model made.. Tons of racing history along with the 289 Cobra. Next time I go out to the west coast to see him I am taking the Lamborghini out..
