> [@cougarspeed](#): > > I worked overnight last night. I spoke to him this morning and moved the cash around to go buy it. I offered a deposit. I told him I wanted it. Dude said ok and I told him I was going to sleep a bit and head out. On my way there he calls and said it sold. Had I known it was still being shown I would have just went this morning. Very disappointing happened to me once, I wanted this car and was ready to head right out with cash dude told me he wouldn’t be avaliable until after 4pm the next day, so when I call him to come out the next day its sold, fucking bullshit ---

happened to me on an e30m3 when I was 19. Took off work, got a buddy to give me a ride down, bought a spare alternator belt and a few bits for the car’s issues. Was about to leave for the drive when the guy’s DAD called me that someone was there until 4am, finally bought it for $1k more than he and I agreed on. I would have GLADLY paid $1k more than what we agreed upon. I would have GLADLY paid $7k for an e30m3… ---

Wagons are neat but not for me. Thanks for looking out though Anyhow yeah…this still blows but what you gonna do. I reall want to have something for this summer but finding a decent deal on a clean Nova is hard to come by. Especially local. I am not opposed to traveling to get one if any of you craigslist/internet hunters want to look at over haha. Again looking for 62-65 mostly Back is my favorite but whatever but open to options, no flames whatever V8 with th350 is top choice. Wouldn’t mind something I can cruise for a few years if I decide not to swap right away I really don’t want to do body/paint work 9" is a big plus Tubular front suspension is a big plus Disc brakes is a big plus as well Don’t want to go over 20k since I will prob spend 10-15 in building it I am sure Anyone find something I buy and I will take them to a steak dinner ---

I’ve had this happen to me a few times and since then I just go ASAP when something is for sale and I want it. Hind sight is 20/20. You’ll find another good one. I’m going to my dad’s this week. I will bring back a car trader from there for you. ---

So who on here has a truck/trailer I can borrow for a few days? Have a few on my radar. Wouldn’t mind making a tip next mon-wed if anyone has interest This one is decent and the price leaves room that I can start throwing siq parts at it right away. Tubular coilover front end which will work for ls swap, updated steering, power disc brakes, and new seats would only ding like 5-6k and I bet the paint will polish up decent. [http://knoxville.craigslist.org/cto/3554807772.html](http://knoxville.craigslist.org/cto/3554807772.html) This one has lots of good parts but it did used to be a straight race car and was recently converted to “pro-street” realistically it is prob really hacked. [http://shoals.craigslist.org/cto/3549678591.html](http://shoals.craigslist.org/cto/3549678591.html) Lastly this ad reads like the guy is kinda slow but car looks clean as fuck. Only one I didn’t call on just not sure if it makes sense as I think I could get the first car running on LS power for a similar price. But man the pics look good.

I like the first, run screaming from the second and the third’s a laser-straight car but $20K is big money for a non-66 or 67 Nova SS. ---

That first one looks like the best bet Drew IMO. You may be better off finding a truck then pick up a full drive on U-haul trailer down there. Last time I did that I think I paid 60 bucks for the day, it was cheap. What about your buddy from HS that helped us when you moved? ---
