Gary,
Want to hear something really funny?? I had been talking with the same guy via email for 2-3 weeks. He left it that he would be in Dallas sometime in the next few weeks and would give me advance notice so he could see the car, and he mentioned that he was looking at one other car in the area, I figured it was yours.

We go to Horseshoe Bay for 10 days over the 4th of July and on Saturday nite we have about 10 people over for a BBQ. A few cocktails later my cell phone rings and lo and behold it is the potential buyer telling me he is in Dallas and wants to see the car in the morning. Well, in my best cocktail voice I tell him I am out of town for several more days and he will just have to find another car to buy!! I hang up the phone, tell the story to the guys out by the grill and they all laugh!

About 8 hours later in a fit of sobriety I realize what I said to the guy, go to my cell phone and try to retrieve his number but discover that since I was not in a digital area that the number was not logged. Tried checking the home #, he had called there as well but left no phone # and of course I do not have caller ID.

The point to this story is two fold:
1) I expect a commission on the sale of your car!
2) alcohol and cars indeed do not mix!

Congratulations on your sale and everyone at my AA meeting thought the story was funny as well!!!

I think you would look really good in either one of our cars and yes Monica the Coupe has Air!!!!

Still the owner of ERA 389
