I had been looking at an OT car for several years as I drove by. I had been told by others that "he'll never sell". One day I decided I just had to ask. Found out where he lived and drove up to the little rundown house. Knocked on the door and a mountain of a man answered " what do you want". almost left. Finally said I've been looking a the 19xx xxxx you have and wondered what you want... He exploded "Get the f---- out of here. You're probably the a--hole that's been stealing parts off of it. I managed to defend myself with "If i was stealing it I wouldn't have stopped, before he slammed the door. Went back to my car and sat for a minute just thankful for walking away. As I sat there I could hear through their open windows his wife screaming even louder than he had been "You sell those f----- cars right now. I tired of your Shi--. Sat there a bit longer and pretty soon the door opened and he came out. "What you give me for it." Now i had low four figures in mind, but at this point didn't want to piss him off, so I said tell me what you want! When he said I want $400 that one and $200 for the parts car I about hurt myself getting him the cash. Then he said "I'll go in and get you both titles" Yeah you probably wouldn't come here if you were stealing parts.
Never know until you ask.
