I went to see our local car mechanic/used car guy [Steve] and he had an old roadster convertible that he'd just put out on the lot to sell. It looked like the above pic, but a compact 2 seater 60's car that i can't find a pic of.
I told him i'd take it and he took it home for me.
But then i realised that i hadn't got any info about the car before i bought it.
I hadn't asked how much it was.
When was the rego due?
Was there any flaws in the car?
I hadn't even taken it for a test drive!
All the important stuff!
I hung around the workshop to talk to Steve about that stuff, but he was really busy and i had to wait around for a while [with the kids]. When i Finlay saw him, he told me the car was 3 grand. Rego was due this coming Wednesday [today] but he'll pay for all of it because the motor in the car had actually been dropped before being put in the car, so he'll compensate for that by paying the rego [$500]
I was pleased with that, and i hugged him and kissed him on the cheek, lots of times. He told me not to kiss him on the cheek so much, and i was a bit disappointed about that coz he looked a bit cuter than he usually did lol
He asked what i was going to do with my other car [The Celica i absolutely adore in reality!] I hadn't even thought about that.
But i said i was going to keep that too for now.
When i got home, i told John about the car. And about how i hadn't even found out anything about it before. He told me off before following me out to see it.
But in the car park, the car was actually a little old UFO that looks like a car off The Jetsons. Apparently when you lock it up, it turns into a UFO looking thing for looks.
John and i talked about weather to take it back to Steve and say we don't want it, or keep it and try selling it. I think we decided to keep it.
Then the dream went off on some other bizarre tangent......
