Well, I drug home another one

It is a bittersweet thing to stumble into a good deal when you're not looking.
Maybe you don't have the room to store it, you have money but it is set aside for something else, you don't have the time for another project, etc.
In 2013, a member of our car club was disappointed in the progress of his car and was thinking of selling. I like the guy so I offered to paint it. He got it in his mind that my offer meant that I'd take the car to my shop and be involved in every aspect of the build.
I wrote about this dilemma on this forum several years ago.
He wanted me to take all sorts of parts with me, many as payment for doing the body and paint.
When it became obvious that he interpreted our agreement as being far more involved than body and paint, I had to confront him and set him straight. At that point, I repeated my offer to do the work THEN tow it back to his place so that HE could do everything else. He admitted that he would never be able to complete the car so we made a deal.
I already sold off some of the parts but for $4000 from me to him, I'd keep the Valiant convertible, a 65 Barracuda parts car and a 75 Power Wagon and all the parts.
I didn't want a 65 Valiant convertible and I never liked the early Barracuda. These early A body parts are not easy to sell either. It is 10 years later and I still have a bunch of this stuff.
I did make out on the deal. I painted the Barracuda and got it running, then sold it for $5000. The convertible bodywork was almost finished so I sold the car for $2000. I made a nice bundle from the parts too.
