Sometimes I hate you guys!!!
hahahaaaa
It comes down to the area you're in.
Cubs up here, are worth their weight gold. But, there's deals everywhere.
A guy I worked with, gave me a 64' Simplicity Broadmoor in great shape....but he did keep inferring that it's an antique and is probably worth alot. I didn't give in because he didn't need the money in any way, and it was left in the shed when he bought the house....if I didn't take it, it would have just become part of the pile of junk next to his shed.
I just started in a new profession, not involving mechanics. My managing agent, tells me he's got a 76' WheelHorse with a 10 or 12hp kohler, and a plow blade....weights and chains. Says it's like new...been sitting in his shed for 10 years. told him I'll take it off his hands in a few months...and I'll give him what it's worth. When I see it, I'll know...it's either a 8spd gear drive, or hydro. I'm excited (wife isn't though).
Deals are out there...when you find them. I don't believe in waiting for a deal, so if a GT pops up, it all depends on what you are willing to pay for it.
if an original pops up, in good shape, I'm on it, if I have the jing....worth has nothing to do with it.
