Hahah no nothing like that at all !!
At the time,the guy in Iowa wanted like 7K for his street legal car. I went to Australia in 1994/95 not realizing the magnitude of the trip that I was getting myself into for just 2 1/2 weeks,and then again for 2 months the next trip in 1998/99. So if I had back every dollar that I spent on those 2 trips,plus my phone bill (way before the internet) that 7k would be kind of cheap by comparison.
Its only money though,and I have made more of it since then. All these years later every Australian that I have been friends with way back then,are still friends of mine today,and I've had several of them come stay at my house when they come to the USA for a visit.
