I[ve seen people pay $40K for Messerschmitts, and $100K for Amphicars. American woodies go for $60 - 80K. The last big price that I saw for a Traveller was a nice, but not great, one that was for sale at Chequered Flag, a top end sports and classic shop here in Marina del Rey, CA that was for sale for $30K and sold for $22K + tax and license. It was also black and a fresh restoration. Took a while to sell...... The weird thing about auctions is that both the buyer and seller pay 10% so the guy who bought it actually paid $63,525 to the auction house for the car! The auction house made almost $12K on the deal!!!! Auctions are funny ....... Ha, ha, ha....... And I couldn't get ten grand for my 43K mile Minor convertible that I had owned for 35 years............

The fall will bring a exciting new dimension to the route. LUNCH STOP - After a stop on top of Bear Mountain to take in the sights we will head down to Fort Montgomery and go to the mountain top resort of Josh Brewer's.?

Well.... That was a surprise! The 50 went very quickly and cheques kept arriving in the mail. I decided that maybe I didn't need to keep 50, so let more of them go. The requests kept coming and I pretty well ran out of badges. Now I don't have enough for myself, so ( you guessed it) I've ordered another 100! Help! I'm back to where I started! I now have 100 badges and want to keep only 50. Will sell the balance for $5.50 for two plus $1 for postage. These are very nice badges and they typically sell for $5.50 each. I accept Pay Pal and credit card payments My contact information is ian at britishcarshop.com My telephone contact is 250-384-2910. Wish me luck! Ian
