"you got no business buying project cars or parts."
Everybody gas a right to buy aything they want. They also have the right to con you down and offer you peanuts for what you think is gold. Being in business myself I have more people coming at me with lowball offers it's scary. It will take some time before people have disposable income after what this a$$hole in the whitehouse has done to the confidence of this country.
Do what I do, say thanks but I'll pass. There's someone out there that knows your stuff is worth what you want.
