Getting a good deal is always a matter of being at the right place at the right time with CIF (cash in fist). I was blessed with this situation. Purchased turn-key ERA 427 S/C built for show and go--427 s/o dynoed at 570 hp--for mid $40K. Original cost was $73K. Built in 1996 and purchased in 2002 on eBay, car had less than 1200 miles on odo. The original purchaser took a big loss, but my exposure to a loss is much less considering what I paid. Problem is I don't want to sell my car, if that's a "problem".
