Also my 28 body cost $250 and it had doors & decklid.

Kevin,

I was just teasing anyway. I could tell the photo was plenty old. I wish I was old enough to be shopping for early roadsters in 1990. I bought mine at the height of the hot rod craze, and I think values have kind of subsided now. Oh well...can’t take it with you.
