What cars did you pass on buying in the 60s/70s because they cost too much

In 1992 I met a local architect that was into Vettes but also had a 1970 Challenger R/T 440 Conv. in really nice condition . I hooked him up with my buddy Jerry and a deal was made for 10,000. Jerry had lots of Mopars and offered to sell me his 70 Challenger 440 R/T SE hardtop with 60k miles for 10k but I didnt have the money . It had P/W , A/C , Houndstooth cloth and was Butterscotch or Turbine Bronze .
Jerry also had a 68 Dart GTS 383 car in great shape which he sold into Canada. Yellow with Black interior.

There was also a 1970 Charger R/T 4sp original owner car in an old storage facility garage . Belonged to an over the road trucker but he wouldnt sell . My buddy Kevin got that car for $2000 sometime around 2005 and flipped it for 10k.
Same town had a 70 300H 1 owner car stuffed in a garage . I got to drool over that one day ... it was the only one I ever saw with a console shift . Not sure what happened to it .
