Here's a 57 Plymouth Fury with a dual carb 318 I bought from Al Schieb (Earl Schieb's son) when I was about 17 or so. I bought this car for $600, put a $15 ad in Hemmings the next day, and sold the car a few days later for $3800. It never even came off the trailer. At the time, my friends were all working for McDonalds or Taco Bell for 5 bucks an hour. That was one of my first lessons about how the world of business works. The couple of job applications I had picked up went straight into the trash can.
