I recently purchased 3928 again! I owned her for several years ago. Sold her and regretted ever since! It took me 10 years to hunt her down. It came up for sale a while back when she ws in Florida. Couldn't pull it off. The car ws sold to a gentleman in AZ. So I put it on the back burner. But I was always looking on EBAY, thinking thats where it would end up for sale. Well fast forward to October of 2014 and I just happen to be on Craigslist. I know the car ws in AZ, but had no idea in what city. Did a random search of Phoenix and to my TOTAL SURPRISE it ws for sale. No BS. I jumped through the ceiling!! Called the gentleman (who bought from the guy on FL) and he ws just as shocked that I had owned the car!
Long story short I bought he back! Still in perfect condition with 26k miles (sold with 25K). Beautiful paint, original wheel and Goodyears included in sale. The chrome wheels are original ford cobra wheels dipped. Not a fan of the chrome, but when it showed up it took me back and I'll leave them on!
The car is Back to the Future! One of the first things my girlfriend (who's now wife) bough as gift was a leather ford motorsport shift knob for the car. When it ws delivered I looked in the arm rest and sure as shit it ws there!!! Got alittle emotional on that!! I put several bolt on parts on the car, yup still there (strut tower brace, bbk jet coated headers and a short throw shifter) Five people have owned this car, I was the second originally, and all five people have been excellent stewards of this car! So happy its back!!!

Awesome story!
When you told the buyer you were the previous owner and wanted to buy it back, did the price go up?

Glad to hear you finally got the car back. I have sold a few cars, I always try to leave it where the option if the car goes back up for sale I get a chance at it.

Funny about price going up! No it stayed the same. I personally thought the car was being under sold at the price it ws. I paid sticker!!!!
