How much will you have really made in the end considering the flight, taxes, title transfer, insurance, gas, cleaning materials, etc.?

Woke up this morning at 4:30am, the morning of my Mom's visitation. We got on the road around 5am and made it to the Amtrak station a little before 7am. The funny part was I met up with another random guy there to sell some foglights.

Finding Tom was hard at first, I didn't think there would be that many people on the train. Then I made a paper sign that said "TOM" and he came right over, LOL.

We went out to the car, I gave him the keys and he sat right down in it. He didn't even pop the hood or open the trunk, let alone look in the back seat. We went for a 1 mile test drive, while I explained some of the feature of the car (he knew nothing about Bonnevilles), and I also explained the problem with the i-shaft.

He gave me the check for $9500, I signed off the title, and we both signed a copy of the Bill of Sale. We were back on the road home within 5 minutes, everything went great.

It was sad watching him drive off, I really liked that car. Oh well, on to the next project.

Unreal. You managed to unload that thing in record time in a recession. :bluetwitch:

Simply fantastic. Can't wait to see the next project.
