Talk about Lucky

[kipwatson]

Hello, I am Kip Watson, from Townville,SC.

When I was in high school in the early 70's I had a 66 GTO.

I truly loved this car, but I let it get away from me.

About three years ago I was walking around an auction my friend was sponsoring

and he said come over here and look at this.

Well there she sat, I knew I had to have this car. So I placed a bid on it.

I was pretty sure I wouldn't be able to afford the GTO, but as it turned out

I bought the car for the original bid.

The rest is history, I now have my favorite car in my garage.
