I got lucky on selling one of my cars and got it back 17 years later. 1992 Heritage Edition z28 with 59k original miles. I sold it in 2002 to a guy in Beaumont, Tx. He was the 4th owner. Wife got a call 2 years ago from the 5th owner that he had all the paperwork the first 4 owners collected on all work done. He said him and his son were going to be in Austin in March 2019 for a RadRod show. We went to the car show and their she was with 57k miles. We invited him and his son for a homemade Mexican dinner. After dinner we walked outside and I said " you know what I am going to ask you?". He said "I know, you got first dibs if I sell it. He said his wanted a vette and he would sell it to get the vette. He said it might be a year or two and I said that is fine. Well , 3 months later, he calls me and said wife wants the vette. We made a deal and I asked if he can wait about 6 weeks, he said ok. August 2020, my dad, son and I drive to Jasper, TX to pick it up. It has 59k miles now. We got lucky. Manny Duarte
