IML: '66 Convertible sale: Doris remains a big part of my Day

["Wm. R. Ulman" <twolaneblacktop@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Well folks,

Again, I had a solid deal, which came unglued just short of the wiring
of funds to my account.  All because the buyer went to the archives and
found an email I had written about finding out my engine is not the
original '66 440, but a '71 or so. Que Sera Sera.  I have driven
Imperials daily for over 11 years now, so I guess I must be partial to
them.

I want to thank Paul Wentink, Mikey Sutton, Ed Barton who all went to
bat for me over my car with this last potential buyer, and it's fine
condition.  I really over bargained my price down, and when I was thrown
the engine in my face, well, let's just say I let it go.  Some people
expect to find an original, certified, appraised, insured Van Gough at
Wall Mart, and on sale.  With a rebate.  Free storage too for a couple
of months as well.  

Outlandishly high offers of cash not withstanding, and I did get my
current condo refinanced, and I did get my new condo, and I do have
secured 100% funding letters on file with the developer, my car is
sticking with me.  I would never be able to replace her anyway, not
easily that is.  She really is one of the nicest '66 verts around.  And
Blue paint, white leather, and top really make her a beauty.  At least
to me, and a few others I know of.

Thought some of you might like to know.
