Seems to me he was the one that may have alerted buyer to what the car was. The price paid was in the range for a standard SS with this mileage maybe seller and buyer may not have known the true value. As a side note I set in this car with the original owner about 1971. I had a 69 L78 not knowing anything about a copo wondering why he would buy a car like this with Malibu markings and no SS emblems! |

I'm all for getting a good deal, but buying from a friend/neighbor for $40K and then flipping it few weeks or months later is pretty slimy, unless he decides to cut them in on the nice chunk of cash he gets for it. If not, that's some friend. JMHO.

So much for the part of the OP that said the car wasn't for sale. Definitely a cool Chevelle, but $225k???
Wow! I guess I'll stay in Corvette world for now. Blair

If the buyer is a dealer the seller has legal recourse for being taken advantage of.

The current owner is a friendly neighbor that works at the Marathon Plant in the area.

Ok.... Look at it this way do you really think this guy walked up and said hey I am going to buy your car for 40,000 and I want to sell it for 225,000 and I want to make all of the profit.... no he didn’t do that but decided to think if it stayed quiet it would sell with a big upside for himself. He knew exactly what he was doing. Why else does he buy the car in a depressed area knowing he’s not going to keep the car but probably did his research and realized I’m going to cash in at somebody else’s expense. It’s plain and simple someone was taken advantage of here. Now let’s just say he was a very honest guy if that is the case then he would need to go back to the family and say hey I will split the profits with you. This guy knew exactly what he was doing from the very beginning

I’m not taking anyone’s side here. I’m merely saying there is always 2 sides to a story. I don’t know both sides and honestly do not care as it doesn’t affect me at the end of the day. Just giving another possible scenario or perspective. Guy might be a dirtbag but who am I to say he’s this or that.?.
