Sad story

Shame you had to get the car back under such circumstances

Welcome back to the Forum and lets hope the enjoyment of that Vette goes a little way to making up for the sad loss.

I feel your pain. A year after I bought my '99 vert I contacted the guy I had sold my '93 coupe to. Wanted to buy it back. The guy, who happened to be blind, had his girlfriend driving him around. She had totaled the car a month earlier, but they were both OK. I was the one with the broken heart.
