Description
Plaintiff decided to sell his 1962 Pontiac and placed an advertisement in the newspaper. In response to this advertisement plaintiff received several offers at or near his asking price of $2,000. On Monday, April 20, 1964, one Ray Benson called plaintiff on the telephone and made inquiry about the automobile, and arranged an appointment to see it. The following day Benson appeared at plaintiff's home, looked the Pontiac over, drove it, and offered plaintiff $1,800 cash for it. Plaintiff accepted his offer because higher offers involved financing, which would require arrangement by plaintiff. Benson informed plaintiff that he was from California and that he would call his wife for the purchase money, and that he was planning to drive the automobile back to California. Benson gave plaintiff $50.00 cash as down payment, but plaintiff returned it to him because plaintiff said he was willing to wait for a cashier's check, which Benson said he was going to produce, and further because Benson looked like an honest man. Arrangements were made for Benson to pick up the automobile on the following Thursday. On Thursday evening Benson informed plaintiff by telephone that he was unable to come to plaintiff's house that evening and that he would pick up the car the following evening. On that Thursday evening, April 23, 1964, plaintiff went to a notary public, signed his name to the certificate of title in blank, in the presence of the notary public.
