Once and Future A-Body Owner

Thanks for the warm welcomes! I tell you, I am getting really antsy wanting that Fish! The guy that has it is an old college professor of mine. He was big on the microchip R&D scene back in the 60s and bought this car brand new. It has been sitting in his garage for at least the last ten years and he has recently started dropping hints that he wants to part with it. He told me the money he gets is not important, he just wants to make sure it goes somewhere where it will be taken care of. I am trying not to push him too hard to just fork over the keys and title as I know there is a significant amount of nostalgic attachment for a car he's owned for 45 years, but it is realy difficult! I see this guy a couple times a week and I just want to grab his shirt, haul him in close, and shake him until the keys fall out of his pocket! And I haven't even seen the car yet! All I know is that its a 65 one-owner and it still runs. Meanwhile I have been lurking on here, reading what I can about the early Barracuda's, and basically trying to keep myself in check until he finally calls me. Anybody have any advice on what I can do to keep my mind off things until it finally happens? I feel like I'm a teenager again wondering when I'm going to finally lose my virginity!!! I just hope this doesn't take as long as that did. But that's another story...
