Here's my list of missed out cars that I wish I had bought.

1.) My all time dream car, 1967 Impala SS 2-door fast back. Great shape and had a 327 to boot. Missed it because I went to look at it one evening and the owner wasn't home. Checked back the next day and the owner sold to some guy like 2 hours before I got there. $3000.
2.) 1968 Impala. Had just gotten a frame off resto. The interior was new and just needed paint. $4000.
3.) 1987 Buick Grand National. I'm still kicking myself for letting rational thinking keep me from buying this car. Contemplated buying it in 1995 for $8000.

 

mine our as follows
1st: 1996 mustang cobra mystic color very rare and it only had 953 miles on it didnt get to buy it because i got ther literally 15 min to late the car was sold for $12.500 damn i hated my self for not buying it after seeing what they were running for on ebay $26.000 to $31.000

2nd: 1987 buick grand national it had 31.564 miles and was one owner car MY DREAM CAR but couldnt come up with the money soon enough was sold 2 days before I was able to get all the money it was sold for $10.500

3rd: 2003 suzuki 750 gsxr custom bought from a punk *** kid who needed to pay for bail for a missly $3000 but when i got home with it my mom had a heart attack so i got rid of it fast but atleast i made some money out of it

and some others I can't remember

 

1976 monte carlo, 45,000 original miles, interior was in perfect shape, 2 dents on body and that was it, gorgeous car, got there 1 hour late, guy wanted 2 grand for it, had the money so a week later I want to get a 87 chevy pick up, found it, was gunna buy it in a week, my parents took the money from me to put the down payment on the house were living in now, needless to say, I was one angry honkey

 

ahhh yes... the one that got away....

'69 Camaro w/400 SB
'70 Chevelle (no motor but solid body and good paint $800)
Silverado 454 SS $4000

 

well i wouldn't call these deals we passed up on, but someone got a good deal on one of them. back when i was 16, 22 years ago, my aunt died suddenly. she had 3 cars that were consider "something". i had 2 crack-headed cousins that were a couple years older than me, both of them girls. the 3 cars were;

1967 Mustang GT350
1969 Corvette
1976 Trans Am 455 4 speed

My crack-headed cousins sold the garage kept GT350 for $3000. the younger of the two took the '76 TA, and eventually ragged the **** out of it. my parents tried to grab the vette for me, when the state decided to step in and take over the estate, so we lost out on it.

 

oh yeah. i remember one that did get away. 1968 camaro. new motor, tranny, rubber, exhaust, with all of the emblems. only needed 4-5hrs worth of body work before paint. $1500.

 

I lost a Black on black 99 Trans Am WS6 M6 for 17K with 6K miles in the summer of 00 because I couldn't sell my old truck fast enough.

 

i missed out on a 96 2 door 2wd yukon for 3000. decided i wanted it and he sold it the day before.

 

wish i would have jumped on my grand national chance, found an 87, college owner straped for cash, great shape few mods $6000 im an idiot
