Agreed. However, there is a 1971 Land Rover close to where I live that I'd like to own. It's one of them that has the spare tire over the hood. It has sat outside for 15+ years and I see it every time I drive a certain local road. It's owned by an out-of-state lawyer who I went to high school with and he remembers me, but the last time he was in the area he said he wouldn't sell it. He tells me it has the optional overdrive, but other than that, he is clueless when it comes to vehicles or maintaining vehicles.
I'd like to own it, but I'm pretty sure it will rot into the ground before he does anything to it.
