[This happened a few years ago, when we were all flabbergasted that a 'time-warped' very clean two-tone '72 C/10 CST fleetside went for $24,000 at Barret-Jackson.]
It's a Sunday night, I'm coming home from work, and at a light, as guy in a later model green GMC kingcab pulls alongside my ' 71 GMC Jimmy...
Greentruck: "Hey how much for your Blazer?"
Me: [It's a Jimmy!] "Uh, Twenty five."
LIGHT CHANGES. I zoom ahead.
Next Light. He catches up.
Greentruck: "Twennyfive Hunnert!? I could do that'' he said -- all hot and bothered.
Light changes again. I zoom forward to the next light.
Greentruck: Yeah. I could do $2500."
Me: "No man. Twentyfive Grand.
Greentruck: Drops jaw. He shook his hand like he burned it on something hot.
Light changes. I pull away.
I mean, Hey? Did you see a For Sale sign? Don't waste my time. If you're dumb engough to give me a fistful of Fool's money, I'll buy two more K/5s and build then up too.
