New poll: What would you do and why?
Went and looked at an engine that was listed on Craigslist yesterday. The listing said it was a 318 with a 904 transmission and the asking price was $100. Showed up at the address and the house seemed deserted and there was a for sale sign in the yard but there was a car in the driveway. When I pulled up a lady got out of the car and greeted me by name but I was still leery until we had talked for a bit. Turns out the house was her dad's and he had just passed away. Dad was a motor head and she was selling off his toys as executor of his estate.
Turns out the 318/904 was a 360/727 and I could have loaded them in the truck for a C note. Instead I showed her the difference and explained that a 360/727 was worth more than a 318/904 and why. Then we agreed on a new price.
Did I do bad and why do you feel that way???
