Decades old NEW Chevys...Respect the classics, man!

I had a friend who found a 42 caddy convert with 20 miles on it. A young man bought it and drove it home, as he pulled in the drive he picked up the mail including his draft notice. He put the car up on blocks and went to war where he died. His parents never did anything with it and when they died the estate was auctioned off. the building the car was in was the last to go and it was august in OK so the auctioneer asked if it was ok to sell the contents sight unseen, and no one argued. My friend had peeked inside earlier but no one else knew it was there so he bought it for $150.00. Tires would still air up and hold! As he pushed the car back he was offered $9000.00 and he turned it down.
