That price is close, you might be able to talk him down a 500 to 1000.
Excellent Bugeyes can bring 10k, the modifications to the one you are looking at
are also desirable mods and should be taken into consideration. There are 2
kinds
of Sprite owners, original show room condition and guys like us. Both enjoy what
the have.
As a driver in modern traffic, the mods are great.
I CCed this message to the Sprite list. You can sign up at www.team.net
No cost but the list keeper does ask for donations from time to time.
I am leaving in the morning for the weekend, I am sure somebody on the list will
get back to you. I do know a couple of Chicago area Sprite guys right Ron,
Peter,
and Ed? They are within 20 minutes to 2 hrs from Chicago.
And another Jersey guy on our list sure would be nice.
Good luck
