I bought my first one from ebay (6704), without even looking at it. Bad move on my part, but a good car none the less. With a little research I found this group, and Dave S. and Rich W. who made the car run again. The description on ebay was a little over the top. But I feel I got a good deal. My second car was bought off the DML, I took about a month emailing and calling back and forth with the owner, he took the pics I wanted, and I finally made an offer, which was accepted. Black Beauty was mine. Now she is in Houston getting all kinds of work done to her. I can't wait for the DCS, she will be there. I just wish I could bring both but I can't.
