Great, solid "normal" car. The price seems reasonable from what I've seen in
the usual places. But food for thought:
Hmmm....$16,000...Let's see, $16,000 = 1 1960 Bugeye, solid, rust free driver
+ 1 1974 Midget, excellent condition + 1 1970 BSA Lightning Motorcycle, great
shape + 1 perfect condition 73 Beetle (parts runner and winter car) + $$$
left over for the restoration car of your choice (MGA, TR-3...) or a solid
MGB-GT or my friend's 1961 Jensen/Volvo P-1800, excellent condition (also
great everyday/winter car).

(you should see the list I worked out for that one; she told me I forgot
about factoring in a divorce lawyer if I brought any of them home)
