Seems like a boatload of money for just a shell...and and incomplete one at that.

True, but it would still be cool. I've never seen one. Look at the rounded back glass. You all think Bradley windshields are expensive. It's no more incomplete than anything on this site. Almost everything here started with a shell. Did that stop anyone? I see putting a little money into it, and selling it for a decent profiet. It should be on the road, not in someones backyard.

The Ad does say it is negotiable, he is obviously looking for someone who appreciates the rareity of the kit car body that he has, and will try to build the car as it was designed to be built.
That being said, it is a kit car body, and kit car bodies are not necessarily collectible items, rather they are giant holes that we throw our time and money into for our own personal pleasure without hope of ever getting it back.
I love my kit car for the pleasure of doing something with my own brain and hands, which gives me some pretty good satisfaction.

I was never one for following the herd. If it's different or unusual, even rare, I want it. I owned a 45' houseboat for years. What made it different from others was some guy built this with his bare hands. It wasn't prefab. He saw what it could be and made it happen, probably the whole reason I like coming to this site. Every single one of us is here because were smart, creative, willing to learn, share and help when we can. We all have our ideas, creative in our own ways and can see the potential behind a lost and forgotten relic in someone's back yard. I agree with the seller. It should go to someone who can bring it back, and I can't think of a better chance than to post it here.
