Default Buy My Car Back?

I sold my 1986 C4 eight years ago. I had two cars at the time and decided that I only needed one. I listed both - my 1986 C4 and my 1996 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo. Showed prospective buyers the cars on consecutive days and both said they would be back with cash the next day. Much to my surprise, they both did come back with cash. I am a man of my word so I sold both vehicles just a day apart. I bought a nice BMW 325i Sport a few days later.

Perusing Craigslist a few days ago and I see my old Corvette listed for sale. The guy I sold it to had gotten too old to really use it any longer (he bought it from me as he always wanted one, was retired, and was reliving his youth) and he sold it to the current owner. It's got another 15k miles now but looks about the same. It's being offered at a great price - far less than what I sold it for and it's in my area. I'm just searching for a reason to not go see it as I know me - I'll cut a check if it still looks and drives as I remember.

I'd sure like to buy my 1966 GTO Hardtop back for the same price I sold it for 38 years ago.
