That's a very cool momento to have. My sister mailed me two repair
estimates she received for her original '67 Mk3 (that I subsquently bought)
when she was rear ended by someone. For the rear valance, trunk lid and
paint, plus labor -- the estimates ranged from... get this -- $140 - $160.
Remarkable.
Cheers,
Jeff in San Diego
