He offered me his gen 1 White Brock Commodore at the time for $11 000. Knocked it back because I wasn't a Commodore fan.
Was a beaut car to drive.
Never occurred to me to re-sell it later. Bugger !

About 1985, I was given first option on buying a black VC HDT from the original owner as he was trading up to a later model HDT.
Around $8K, I think. Could have scraped up the asking price, but I also was not a big fan of early Commodores, which I thought were cheap and nasty compared to a 'real' Holden.
As for reselling it for a huge profit years later, whoda thunk of that back then ?
