  • Holy Smokes * My Luck May Be Changing

    With all the hassles, headaches, and aggravation dealing with insurance companies, attorneys, and all others since my mother's passing 2 months ago, I am seeing a dim light at the end of the tunnel. I think my luck may be changing a little. My mom did have a slight, secret gambling problem and left me with a financial night mare. I'm sure it was not an intentional thing, but it happen. One dollar bills have become a value of 1 hundred dollar bills to my wife and I now. I hope too be able to slap this thing on ebay and get enough to cover at least one past due bill. I was never into the chase scene at all or cared about any value on any of my cars, but for now I'm picking up pennies I find on the ground. It won't be this tight forever, because I do have faith and I do believe my luck is changing a bit!!!
    Found this JL White Lightning Mercury Cyclone this morning!!!

    No photo description available.




    Due to a very, very poor seal on the blister I was able to remove the car and photograph it loose. Never seen a gold engine in a JL...

        How about a raffle? How many of us would be willing to put $10 in the pot? Just an idea.

          Only one word comes to mind and that is "wow".
          Steve, congratulations on your awesome find,
          Sometimes good things happen to good people.
          And you deserve it.
          Thanks for sharing your good luck with the rest of us.
          Maybe the best White Lightning of all time!

          Cheers. Cobra

            I stuck this WL on ebay a few days ago and the top bid so far is 43 bucks with 7 watchers. I almost feel guilty taking so much for this car when it only cost me $5.99!!!
            Current Bid: $43.00
            Auction ends Dec 28, 2019 08:28 PST
            Item ID: 223807508737
            Bids: 6




            I also received a message from a potential buyer who is top bidder. Here is his message:
            "This is our car we are Shane and Tammy Bryant if you will list a buy it now I will pay 80.00 please let me know if you agree and I will buy as soon as you change the listing thanks again"

            I tried to do as he ask, but once there is a bid on your item, you can't make any changes to the auction...

              Thank you Cobra. The crazy crap and nerve racking stuff I have been through since mid October, it's a wonder I can even think half way straight. I can't believe there are so many uncaring, mean, greedy, ruthless people out there. Especially in customer service departments. I have had major hassles from attorneys, credit card companies, utility companies, insurance companies, funeral home, Direct TV (who totally suck), not to mention both cars breaking down, leaky roofs, a major water leak in the slab of the house, but the water company has been wonderful working with me. I am almost to the point I'm afraid to leave my house or open my mailbox. Heck, I'm not responsible for any of my mother's charge cards, why they hassle me and send me threatening letters? Out of 20 thousand dollar life insurance policies, they paid out a little over 2 thousand because my mom borrowed money against them to gamble. In a way I feel like I am being forced to become ruthless and greedy to survive. I swear I could write a book that they would turn into a movie, after I went "POSTAL" on them all...LOL
              I am sorry to say and think it's a crazy and greedy world we live in today!!!
