[Spridgets] Top dollar/Nice bugeye

[Leo S]

Time to face reality guys...   Bugeye vlaues are and have been climbing and 
will continue to get even higher in the not too distant future.  I said 
around 5 yars ago that within 15 years you will see 50k for concours 
examples.  Dont belive me just wait nd see:)  Didnt make a whole lot, lots 
were destroyed over the years, typical British rust issues added to the 
mortality, and it is a cult car (no not a cult in the bad way).  The car 
mentioned has its faults but if it was done with good workmanship then yea 
he will get it.  Try to build one that looks as nice and i will bet you end 
up with that much if not more invested.

Better strt checking the insurance values for replacement.
