Boy, does that bring back memories! Me and my 16 year old buddies driving
around like fools looking for the elusive "new" Trans Am (I've heard it told
with the Vette or the Mustang variation also) that some kid killed himself
in and the family just wanted to get rid of it for $100. It was always the
same story. Ah, urban legends... Regards, Greg Hutmacher

April Fools Day joke?
I know of a reclusive millionaire automobile collector whose corpse was
just found in his favorite 1969 TR6, commission number CC25001. That's
right the very first TR6 ever produced. What's more, the car only has
10 miles on it and the factory price sticker is still on the windshield.
Apparently the old guy died upon arriving home from the Triumph
dealership. The grieving family will sell the car for $100
.................. because they can't get the stink out of it.
That one, without the editorial license necessary to make it an
appropriate post on this list, dates back to high school.
