You did a great job washing and waxing it, how long before the owner picks it up?

Had one. Dry sump all aluminum V-6 twin turbo. Ran great and was fast as balls if the weather cooperated. Otherwise, it was the biggest hassle POS I ever had.

First Car...
1988 Ford Thunderbird, V6, More rust than paint....


Car I wish I never would have sold:
1985 Oldsmobile Toronado, 307ci 5.0L V8, Silver w/ Black Top


Dream Car:
1965 Mustang, Fastback, with a 351W stroked out to a 398 stuffed under the hood with a paxton supercharger, tremec 5 speed, and custom built 9-inch with decked suspension and brakes.

the 66-70something Toronados were awesome

Mine was a 1980 Camaro Z28 absolutely identical to this one except mine had Cragar SSTs and a 450hp 406 under the hood.


Dream car at the time was far more exotic than a 450hp 80 Z28...

and


My Camaro was my namesake. License plate was ZLTFUL and it followed me to my 260Z.

My first car was not new when I got it, but closely resembled this Firebird:

1979 Firebird


Dream car at the time (and still):

Ferrari 288 GTO

That car was guaranteed to overheat on any day over 95F, otherwise I had 0 problems.

The blowoff valves on mine were finiky as hell. Over 80-85 degrees the thing overheated even while moving, in traffic, forget it, pull over and wait for the road to clear. Find a bar and 
In cold weather(Below 55), the damn thing fouled plugs constantly. It finally blew a rod thru the block one hot summer day when I didn't pull over fast enough. Have you ever tried to rebuild that motor? Total nightmare - All the fasteners are hex and torx.
