-- [ From: Bob Nogueira * EMC.Ver #3.1a ] --
Back in 1976? knew a guy who bought a New Caddy convertible, since it
was the last American convertible to be made . He bragged about how he
was going to store it in his garage and watch the price go up .
Twelve years later I met another guy who bragged about how he had bought
a brand new 1976 Caddy Convertible which had never been registered for
half the original selling price.
Talk about a lose - lose situation
