I know Florida's humidity can be rough on cars, but....****....
 
I believe there is a point of no return.
 
Dang! "won't ship to Canada". Heck, I'd be all over that! J-P: how does Florida salt air compare to Toronto winter driving?
More seriously: for $ 300 bucks, it would be worth taking a chance on some of the parts being useful as the car looks pretty complete (except for a bit of metal missing from the body). Doug

I'm not worried about that part - If the seller is willing to store it for about 6 more months, I figure he/she can just slip the rest of the car in a Manilla envelope and mail it to me.

Yeah, about that - it is possible that the car in the ad started out in November in Toronto as concours and by now..... (I would gladly exchange 100 Florida Salt winters for on Toronto) :grin:
 
That's a sad little car. Hate to see a Bugeye that far gone. Poor little car didn't even have it's Bugeye smile anymore...
 
Ran 7 years ago my grill sits outside and is 7 years old I bet it has more steel in it than what's left of this thing
did they sand blast it and salt crust it like a sea bass?
 
He's got to be pulling our leg. No way that ran 7 years ago. Only thing I see that might have value is the tach drive box. Maybe the gen for a rebuild.
