| Consensus from some off-list messages seems that $1k is in the right ballpark.
So, if Curt picked up that bugeye with a good set of original floor mats and 
interior in good shape for $3,500 it sounds like a pretty good deal to me, 
especially if he's interested in doing a concours bugeye.  Me, I'm happy with 
my red AMCO mats with the aluminum frame covers.

original, decent, bugeye rubber floor mats and center tunnel cover in the
past 25 years?  (not the AMCO items, I mean the real deal)  It wouldn't
surprise me to see a complete set go for $1,000 to a concoursophile.  I know
there's been a couple of attempts to come up with a group to do repros, but
the total price has always been too much to make it worthwhile.

$25,000 to $50,000 would be more "realistic"!!
'Course you prob'ky have to commit to 100 sets and then you could "sell" the
rest!!<VBG>!!
