HAH- I wonder if it's the same guy that offered my step-dad a trade for the Hallet racing boat that we had for sale during the same time frame.... I was 16 at the time, but I remember it plain as day:

Guy showed up to look at the boat, and flashed a picture of a dusty old Cobra, with wire wheels and a worn out vinyl top- He said it was a one-owner car with 40k on the odo, which was also verified on the title. He offered it to my step dad straight across for the boat, and my step-dad passed on the deal...

Like I said, I was only 16 at the time, but it was at that moment that I realized that I was NEVER going to take financial advice from my parents, ever again, for the rest of my life...
