Default Goodbye 73

Sold the 73 today, got one last pic as she was being driven away.....
Now, as soon as I can sell the red 69, my buying and selling adventures will be complete. Anybody looking for a 69? :D

I can only hope this was not a sad departure.

What do you have in the 69?
427 4speed NOM but 68 dated block. Will send you links.


I wish Cappy would have bought it, but the person that bought it will be doing a complete restoration on it. It is in very good hands now! Plus the guy is my friend who bought it so, I will be seeing it around.

Didn't you just buy the 69 a couple of months ago? Did something bad happen with you?

Man, that is really as sad picture. Left an empty feeling I'm sure. What's happening? Why are you getting rid of them? I hope it's not something major.

Well, yep, something bad did happen. I've got my insurance bill. :eek: I decided to only have one vette and between the two, I just didn't have time to keep both up. So, then I found a 69 BB vert that I just have to have, so I am selling the coupe. Hopefully if everything goes smoothly I will have the vert on tuesday.

Well, out of the choices, I'd say the 69 BB Vert would be my choice. I couldn't bring myself to selling any of them however.
