The saga continues.
Deal fell through on the '66 Imp out of Nebraska. Found out the car's been sitting outside for at least a year. OK, concerned, but not a deal breaker-negotiating point. The day comes for the pre-purchase inspection, owner can't be found, left messages, emails, etc. The appraiser and I figured he got nervous, seller's remorse, whatever. So, I moved on and now am looking at a '65 up in Scranton. Come to find out the old guy was out of town somewhere, didn't have his cell phone on him and so on. Sorry, I had no idea and won't pull out from this deal-in-the works.
