People who let rare cars rot.

After an experience I thought back on this thread, I've been searching for a perfect left hand, drivers side Demon tail light lens for a year now. I got a lead on a Demon in a sink hole on a farm and finally got in touch with the owner, went and sure enough the old car is sunk in the ground, 72 H code car also, the tail light I need was in the trunk, in the mud, trunk floor and rear frame rails done rotted away. The lenses is perfect but housing is bad, I was tickled to find it, but.... I asked his price and he said $250.00 more than I thought he'd ask but I said I'd take it, then he backed out and said he'd rather have a 440 block so I offered him a short block I have for it, 1977 block, crank, pistons and rods, and he said he would trade. Now he's backed out on that, haven't heard from him, I think he's still trying to pull me for more, I've come to the conclusion the taillights are unobtainable so I guess I'll just have to keep searching. Just gets under my skin knowing a good lenses is laying there in the mud and cant be bought.
