A 68 Cuda big-block fastback for $8500 - this is the best buy yet

The pictures and short video he sent enticed me to borrow a trailer and drive 300 miles with cash in hand. What I found was a light blue car with blue interior that had been "in a barn" for 30 years. The car wasn't even cleaned out when it was painted. The interior was spray painted black or just left blue. The trunk and inside still had cob webs and dust 1/4" thick. The paint job was "fresh" and full of dirt. The motor and trans were number matching , the exhaust manifolds were there and correct. I knew this was a "good" car just way overpriced considering it was a total mess. The test drive was another story and made my mind up I'd offer $12k with the hope he wouldn't accept. On the way home with an empty trailer we found my 68 and I bought it a few days later.
