Be real good for his business also..My dad always told me to want in one hand and poop in the other and tell me which fills up first! I guess he was happier with that $200 he got at the scrapyard.
Yeah, once he gets over being pissed off, he will probably realize that he made a big mistake. He should kick his own *** for that stupid move.He punished Himself.
/////////////////////////////I had a guy come here for a car to work on with his dad and son he was in his late 20's early 30's. I told him $300 or $400 for this dart drive it away. 318 auto 8 3/4 rear.
He went and got his dad. While he was gone I put the red scamp deck lid on it and pulled it out from the back of the garage.
The nose was nice and I didn't have any use for the rest of the car.
When he returned the dad was kicking tires for about an hour. He made me a low ball offer and wanted to take the car and make payments. I told him I'll think about it and got in the loader. You should have seen their faces when I grabbed it buy the back with the rock bucket. I got out of the loader and went back in the garage.
I later stripped the car and made more money. But ruining the deck lid was worth the looks on there faces. I didn't care for saving the body anyway I had several Guys that wanted the front end and the rear. plus some trim parts.
I sort of know what that guy was thinking. But he cut off his nose to spite his face on that choice.
I have a better story about a 72 340 Demon if you are interested. I believe it is a members car on this site. He tried to low ball my son and I. He'll never do that again.

////////////////////////////////You heard the crusher guy ask him right at the beginning, "you buy it to flip?", Yep.
Too bad he has no clue about what he's buying or trying to sell. The only one he punished is himself. Who cares is he got low balled, still better to get something back instead of just flushing his money, and a rare car down the toilet.
Just shows the guy is mentally unstable, nothing more.
///////////////////////////////That's not fair to say. Maybe he has 10 other 70 charges in prestine condition. Maybe he has tons of money and 5-20k really isn't a drop in the bucket for him.
Fun story- my uncle, who is very very religious, was building his 25,000 sq ft house with 2 seperate 5 car garages to go with his 7 car attached garage. Floors were all white marble with white marble columns etc. Beautiful house.
One of the people doing the installation of his white marble floors pointed out that in the middle of the night rooms the black in the marble looked like a silhouite of a naked woman. My uncle right then made up his mind and had the installer rip up all of the marble in entire room and reinstall new marble. (There are many expensive stories to go along with this house that are all like this, some of them 2-300k in price and its not a drop in the bucket to him)
Point I'd the story- some people can do things like this, not have to worry about the sunk costs because they have so much money it doesn't matter.
