The motor and trans that are in my coupe were in my sedan when I sold it to my buddy in '89. he gave me the car back in '05.
Does that count?

I regret letting go of any of my cars. I spend way to much time and knuckle skin on them. I tend not to buy one unless I really desire the darn machine. I remember on one occasion I bought back a particulary nice expamle of a 78 B210 that I had completely restored - dash pad - seals - engine - brakes - the works. I was very happy to get my baby back and on the way home late at night in the backwoods of Washington cruising about 75 the oil sending unit line snapped and bled all of the oil out in a matter of a few moments. By the time I realized it my engine had seized. Not a good night.

Hey mate, it happened to me in 1989. I bought a baby blue 72 sedan from my cuz that was all original for $700.00 then I traded it for a 1980 toyota starlet. I ended getting back my sedan in 1993 from a neihbor. I didn't even know it was the one I had because it was painted dark blue, with fiberglass doors,front and trunk. It also had roll bars inside with only the front seats and a rx-7 rear end with disk brakes. They swapped the original A12 for a A15 with all the goodies. It was running 12's in a qtr mile with NOS. But when I got it, I put it street legal. I had to sell it because My ex was pregnat and I needed a family car :( Dam I miss that car !!!

i have... i bought a 1200 sedan for my ex- girlfriend about 6 years ago, things go ugly and i went on holidays, when i cam back i found it was gone and she had sold it for 100, 4 years had past and i was at my local watering hole, and i bumped into my brothers old work mate, and told him i was looking for a 1200 sedan for a new project, and he went out the back of the pub and came back with this fella id never seen before, and he said " come and get it before christmas and its yours" so i went out in in middle of butt fcuk (mt perry) about 1.5hrs from my house and there she was, the same car, in the same condition, and i got it back for free!! put some fuel in it, fired it up and drove it home.

I'd like to, I miss my other 120y sedan. Little bugger has a ford crossflow 6 in it atm and goes to the drags occasionally. I'd swap my ute body for the shell yeah

I think many of us have done this; In 1985 I sold the coupe 1/2 an hour after I bought it, to a friend who needed a car, got it back in 89 then sold the car again in 97 then got is back in 02.

Good deal to get yours back.
