Default Re: Strategy to purchase a car that's "not for sale"

Honesty always pays off IMO.. I'd contact him, but first have some Proof that this is indeed the car you Father owned., or risk being taken as just another guy with a story to try and buy a car that is not for sale. Then just be honest and ask if he would consider selling it and if he says No, they ask for right of first refusal when it comes time... be gracious for teh opportunity and don't think the theory of everyone has a price works.. ie., don't take the NO and then make him an offer..

Good Luck

Mike
