When I was in the Army the first two years (72,73) I was stationed at Fort Lewis, just outside Tacoma, Washington. One day, my buddy and I were ogling girls downtown Tacoma and a 427 Cobra drives up and we strike up a conversation. After a bit, the guy offers to sell me the Cobra for $6500. I would still have that car, but for a young private making $400 a month, it might as well have been a million dollars he was asking...

I've also passed up several very nice cars- 2- 69 Z28's , a 69 Charger, a 69 Road runner, and a couple more that are just too painful of memories to discuss...
