I’ll give you... $20,000, cash, now...
That's what he said he told the guy with the 'vette. "I'll pay cash."
We were doing our normal evening walk around the neighborhood - extending it a bit to include the neighborhood next to us as well. We passed a gentleman putting out his trash for the early morn pickup. Inside his garage I noticed a car - covered under a cloth blanket.
"What are you hiding under there?" I asked as we passed - curiosity getting better of me.
"A '64 'vette," he practically shouted out. "A convertible." Proud papa that he was, he told us his tale - how he had found it at a local car club meeting and the seller (going through a divorce) telling him "... his wife will never get it."
"I'll give you $20 Grand for it - cash." Proud Papa told the guy. The guy looked at him, then at the car, and back to him. Holding out his hand, he said "She'll never get that either..."
