IML: Will I Ever Find the Car I Really Want?

[Crestonave@xxxxxxx]

Just picking up on a thread I caught recently on the IML - I think it was  
Joy - expressing concern that she'll never have the car she wants.
 
Answer: you will if you're patient enough.
 
I own two cars, a 1968 Imp convert and a 1960 NYer coupe. Both cars came  
from Kally Forn Ya, and I bought both based on pictures and a third party  
inspection. I got beat on the NYer but got lucky with the Imp, so I guess I'm  even.
 
Don't be overanxious, don't jump and don't settle. The car you want will  
always be out there, you just need to find it. Make sure you check out all the  
details and buy the most fully restored, fully functional vehicle you can find  
and afford, because the devil's in the details. Unless you have the talent 
and  time to do a lot of the work yourself, (which includes tracking down the 
parts)  you're going to spend beacoup bux hiring someone to do the work for you 
-  assuming you can find someone reliable. 
 
Good luck.
 
Tom
