Jimmy,
Glad you got something you wanted more. Money is buying things you want. Enjoy.

Whether we agree with JimmyW in his to buy a Vette is irrelevant, IMO. He did very well in being able to sell the guns for a profit. I don't know Jimmy, but I'm willing to bet that was not accidental, given this depressed economy. Betcha' he adheres to the idea that you make money on guns when you buy them, not when you sell them.

That is why since '72, there has been a '62 Corvette in my garage. I thought it was expensive back then, now I wouldn't want to have to buy it back if I did sell it. Those surviving me can worry about that. I still feel like I am 19 again driving it, just as I was when I bought the car. But, it doesn't matter what you like, as long as you like it. Just as the old joke says, "who you going to please with that thing!" the answer is "ME!"

Hi all, just joined the board after several years of lurking.
Corvettes are great, love my 09 Jet Stream Blue Coupe. But since I have recently retired I'm thinking about selling it and putting the proceeds into future hunting trips. Of course these trips will have no residual value, except making better bird dogs and memories.---Decisions, Decisions.

Boy Dave:
Did your post bring back some memories. My wife and I went on our Honeymoon in our 1962 327/300hp Roman Red Corvette.
This was back in 1966. Always regretted selling that Vette. However I still have the same wife and a newer Corvette convertible to tool around in. It is now finally cool enough here to put the top down and it will probably stay down until late next Spring.
N.B: We have the longest continuois running weekly antique and classic car show here in Scottsdale. It's been held every Saturday night for many years at the Pavillions Shopping Center parking lot.
