“For instance” he adds, “there’s “The Chicken Coupe Deville” [1925 Cadillac V63 Coach]. It came from Orange, California. It was advertised in print and no one in North America bid on it. It was only $25,000 so I did a buy-in. It used to be owned by a farmer who kept all of his cars in a great condition. This was during World War II, so the car was put in a chicken coop, and it just sat there. When I got it shipped here, I pulled out the ashtray and found used cigarette butts in it, so obviously I put them back in there because those were smoked prior to the war. The car is historical. I found out that the car had blue lights in the back. Turns out, back then there used to be no signals so blue lights were the brake lights. Stories like that

Just as a usual summer day I went out to the Chevy, started it up, and proceeded to go to work. As I was going down the street shifting through gears it everything was like usual, until I went into fourth. As soon as I heard the terrible grinding noise I immediately knew something was wrong and pulled the shifter into neutral. My heart dropped and I tried to comprehend the sound I just heard. As I tried to get into fourth for the second time it went in and made a terrible skipping sound which got louder as the car went faster. I immediately knew that fourth gear had teeth missing. And I needed a new transmission. As I limped the car back home I told my family and they, in frustration, told me to go buy a car that will actually work because

As I was brushing my teeth, I noticed that it was almost time for me to leave for school. I searched around my closet for a shirt and some jeggings, my usual wardrobe for school, I head towards my broke in tennis shoes. Heading downstairs, I grab my computer holder and my headphones and head for school.

Every year my Dad and I go to many events together. One of my favorite events is going to car shows, especially the annual Goodguys car show in Columbus. I love going to car shows and looking at the cars. The events are so much fun that I want to bring a car of my own to the shows. I started to search for the perfect car to fix up. We had two cars I could fix and take, a 1946 kb3 International or a 1963 Ford galaxie 500. I ended up choosing the Ford, but it was my grandfathers so I asked if he would sell me the car. He ended up deciding that if I fixed it to a running and driving state that I could have it.

In my heart, I knew it couldn’t be true, but they all said she was dead. I was at her funeral and everyone told me to move on, but I couldn’t. It didn’t feel right.

You have agreed to buy a new Subaru from a dealer. The down payment you will need to make on the new car is $9,400, which lets you take out a loan with manageable (but steep) monthly payments. You are low on ready cash, so if you can't come up with the down payment by selling your Volkswagen Jetta, you will have to borrow it at prime plus 5% interest. You are supposed to pick up the Subaru first thing tomorrow morning, so you want to sell the Jetta today.
