Thanks Don, it does say ‘or offer’, maybe someone will pick them up for around $7500.  Two to make one?  A good amateur restoration should be able to bring $20+.

All true, Bob. But they are from California's Central Valley, so body shells likely better than most.

Posted mainly for those following the earlier discussion that Craigslist was seeming to be dead as far as vintage TRs goes.
