Just wanted to share a story with you all...........
I turned 56 this year..........My life long goal, and I do mean life long....at least since the age of 12 when I started working,.......I had a dream to retire at 55 and buy a corvette at 55..........I missed both those goals.......but went car crazy the past two years.........buying a 03 Silverado, 06 camper, 72 corvette (finally), 69 camaro, a 72 truck, and a one owner 84 Silverado.......and that doesn't count what I already had....and all the while with my wife saying you've got to sell something........10 vehicles is too many...........(what does she know...LOL)
Today I met an older gentleman who had the cleanest collection I have ever seen and I mean right down to the floor you could eat off of....... I spent over 2 hours with him and at the end of the conversation and inspection of all his toys we talked about an 04 corvette he has that he now wants to sell............it looked like it had never been off the a dealers floor and the price was right..........I again went car crazy. .... My wife is a good girl and I agree that I should sell something before I get something else.......so...........today I posted an ad in the classified section on this site enough of my toys to allow me to buy that car. I hope some of you will come look at the stuff I have for sale.......someone could make money on all of the items........and my guess is improve your cash by around $5000 once you sell the items. As always, I'll tell you everything about the items with all honestly.........and out of all of this I hope to get to meet more of you.
I hope to hear from you as I continue to go car crazy and continue to enjoy this site.:hurray:

Why do you need so many trucks?I get by with a do everything 06 F150 screw with 6.5 box.Then there is more room for the toys.The 04 vette would be sweet I tried out a 03 50th anniversary vette but wound up with the camaro as I was tired of vehicle depreciation.I too set my goals to have a vette at 50 so to get the 69 camaro vert at 46 yrs of age with 2 teenage boys at home I couldn't be happier.The oldest grads in 08 and I want him to drive the camaro to grad [under dads escort] for memories as my childhood blew.To have a late model vette and a camaro would be awsome.Good luck selling some stuff

I don't know why I have so many trucks..........each one came up for sale and I liked them and bought them but you are right........I only need one. I am doing a frame off on a 69 truck as well so I will sell them all. Note sure if the vette thing will last once I buy it but it's like I can't die without trying it. I too really like the camaros and driving my 02 convert. is a blast. Why I do what I do???........man it's anyones wonder............I guess I'm a car nut
