I haven't actually seen Pieces, except in pictures.  (Jeez! Toms River is 
almost a 90 minute drive for me!  I'll get there someday, Frank!)  But I did 
go to eBay (your personal trading community) and looked at the '69 Bugeye 
Midget.  What a piece of...  Well, I wouldn't buy it.  

Sure the bug bonnet fits ok, but why'd he leave the chrome strip down the 
side?  And those horrible shag carpets, and the RUSTY wires, and the cracked 
windshield, and the shot hood, etc.

It's a parts car, worth maybe $500, but probably not even that.  Stick to 
TraderOnLine, and see it before you buy it.

(BTW, the Russian submarine is still available, with NO BIDS and no reserve!  
Hurry.)
