Nope, as most barn finds I've bought in the past have been in the 15-25K range.

With 100% honesty and full disclosure, his beautiful car is far from a barn find and frankly should have sold last night for full asking price. If not, I'd be really surprised. My cash offer was a little less (ok, who did not make an offer last night ), 6-8 weeks from now I would have just said "I'll take it", of course I have some documented Atocha coinage I could throw in to make the deal better, but that would rely on the seller wanting documented Atocha coinage along with my cash offer .

Did you offer to buy it for full price last night, if not, you should have.
