Yeah, Rocky, the point there is that deal wasn't open to the public. He got
that price because you owed him a favor.
In the open market, we aren't going to see nice, solid, rust-free MGAs going
for anywhere near that kind of money. If you would have offered that car to
the list or on eBay, you would have gotten a lot more money than that for
it.

Just that one. I bought it from a friend for $3,000 when I came off the JJ
Cale tour in 2004. I did a lot of work on it and planned to put an MGB
engine in it, but I had financial troubles, so I sold it back to the guy I
bought it from. I owed him a favor, so I took a hit on the price.
