As far as I know.  To the right person it would be worth that much, but
finding the right person in today's market won't be easy.  The car
basically needs paint.  The attraction is that it's very original and
very low mileage.  In most people's opinion I overpaid ($5K) for my '66
convertible back in 1988, but I've never regretted doing so.  It was a
very original car that basically needed paint.  It's still a very
original car that has 20 year old paint that looks very, very nice.
Bonnie's car could be the same.
