I think you had better check to make sure the cars are actually on her property and not on an adjoining one. Maybe that's what she's hiding!!
A bunch of creepy replys because a woman is involved. Lets keep a little class here dudes. Sleazy! ~sololobo~
I think just a return visit to say hello in case she misplaced number. at nearly 70 i can only too well identify with that. i esp have trouble misplacing letters on the key board!
go back & be nice,maybe lost your # or has been been busy,if you don't check em out someone else will,then they'll be on craigslist or worse on their way to 'acme' recycling center,.. sorry no sexual comment from me.
LOL Knowing you are a woman I was hoping YOU could answer that for US!!!! So really... how did it go with the cars / parts? Any luck? And seriously... would you answer the first question for us... puhleeeeeeze???
Are you sure that it's a Champagne glass? May be a Martini glass would be more like it. The former is the shape of a Roma tomato !!!! Ray
You got lucky The last time I went up to a door to ask the old lady about a old car (40 ford sedan). Hi would you like to sell the 39 or 40 .... I cant tell for sure from here? (many cats all over the place) I got this. “ so you just decided to come up here and think you can offer me a few bucks ? Get the fuck off my porch and property before I get my shotgun! ”
In todays world that really is not relevant. If anything she has an advantage in every way. Probably been bothered by 900 guys trying to get to her old cars, most likely sick of us by now.
Hahaha thats funny, be good to see that. Maybe knock her door again. Just say you were passing and rememberd about speaking to her, making out like you forgot. Find something to chat about for a while (non car stuff) and slowly get around to finding out more. Worked for me a few years ago. The guy had a load of old Ford parts but also had a Bloodhound, real friendly one that sat on his drive. Got talking about dogs for half an hour and eventually the car parts. Funny thing is i always pop my head in when passing and say hello to him , the dog and share a brew.
Offer her a bag and some shoes you don't need any more,bring a puppy,get her slooshed on the wine and start a conversation about what a dooshbags all men are;suggest you go shopping together,she'll be putty in your hands
Ok try a map quest, Google or what ever you use do an areal serch and see what is possable there then knock on the door again she may have forgot Have a Grate search
BAAAHAHAHAHA!!! On as serious note, This chick is NEVER home or if she is she's hiding from me!She Broke my heart. Mayby she was trying to lure me into her woods but found someone else.
Just be honest and persistant. I got a 58 Caddie convertable that she had been offered more for but I was honest and interested in the sweet old lady. You'll do fine. She already sold you something for stopping. Too many times we act too anxious and overinterested.
Yes, trying to be cool about it and not go overboard, like showing up with a truck and chains. Just wanna take a peek thats all.
She probably isn't motivated by money (since she was willing to give you the grille), or she doesn't recognize that there is any value to the cars. Maybe you could let her know that there is interest in what she has and with a little help, she could potentially make a lot of hobbyists happy. It would definitely depend on your commitment too, but it could be an amazing opportunity!
The best suggestion ever on how to motivate a woman comes from Hershambob here on the HAMB: "I'd tickle her bum with a lump of celery". Let us know how it goes,
