Worst buying or selling decision!!

1971. In one month I passed on these three:

56 Corvette, bad paint was peeling, but body was perfect. 265 three speed. Original motor. $700. thought is was too much because I could detect a bit of whine in second gear.

56 Nomad owned by a little old lady. Very nice, no rust original car with slight oxidation on the red paint. $600

55 Nomad (this one really hurts). I followed the guy to a monstrous house out in the country. Turned out he was the maintenance man, and got out of the car with a gun. We ended up talking a couple hours (not at gunpoint) and when I left he told me to just "call on ole Roosevelt if you ever need anything". Light blue Nomad with blue and white interior was really nice. But... just couldn't see spending $750 on it.
