Whoa Hoss...maybe that much if it was a 100 point concours...
Box Sprites just don't command that price. More like a 100 pt bugeye. If it
is only surface rust and all mechanicals are very good, maybe $4-5000. First
check the floors under the carpet and from underneath, and the sills, and the
areas around the lowere door hinges and where the front of the rear springs
mount. Any cancer makes this a less than $2k car..
