Well Bill & Listers
In my case, it took 15 years. As an example...3 weeks ago, put a bid in for
the 700 original mile California Bugeye which was posted here several months
ago. My bid for $25,000. (Yea you read it right) was topped by a bid of
$30,000. (yes, for a bugeye!) My wonderful beautiful wife seeing my utter
amazment and disappointment at loosing the car at that level, warmly
suggested we bid $31,000. That showed me she had finally understood this
whole antique car thing. I thanked her for her understanding but rejected
her offer to bid higher. That kind of money even for a perfet bugeye is
beyond the outerlimits. So give it time, don't pressure her, and give her a
set of keys, teach her to drive it and send her some flowers. She'll come
around.
Good Luck,
George Marinos
