BW T5 in a 1275 Sprite

For 12K, It had better be a show car!
Maybe I'm out of touch with car prices, but wasn't there like 50,000 US bugeyes? Hardly a rare car.
 
May have been 50K, no clue. Must be way way down now.

When was the last time you saw one on the road, 20 years for me maybe. One in P'cola, one in Niceville, one in Panama City. Those are the only ones I know of in this neck of the woods and I have not seen them but pics show nice sunday drivers.

Trevor a show sprite, a good one for national competion is going to be 20K on a good day. Sunday Driver 12K. Daily driver 8K and an example that needs restoration 5K. Roller maybe 2 or 3K. Parts car 600 to 800 if it is all there.

Obviously I have been watching prices.
