    Ya never know............

     



    ..........what ya got sometimes. Looks to me like this guy didn't know what he had when he started the auction at $500 described only as a '63 Tempest. If you read the comments it didn't take long to get the message.

    It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

    Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

    Isn't that wild!! To start at $500 and see it go to almost a 1/4 million bucks. Man, if I wore lipstick, I'd have a grin so wide I'd have it on both ears!! You can bet the seller didn't see that coming. Sniper
