I found a '67 RS/SS-350 Camaro convertible that a guy had in his barn. The car was in great shape, but the engine needed to be rebuilt. I told the guy that my first car was a '67 Camaro and I always wanted another one. Other people had tried to buy this car and other cars from him, but he would not sell. I asked him why he would not sell the car to me and he said, "Son, if I sell you that car, I'll have to give half the money to my wife and I will end up with half of what I started with." I told him I understood his reasoning. While walking around his property, I noticed that he did not have an enclosed car trailer......so I asked him if I bought him an enclosed car trailer, would he trade me the Camaro for it? He perked up and said he would. I found a trailer that he liked that week and we traded. He even brought my new Camaro to my house in his new trailer.
