Subject:Re: [Fwd: [VB] Stolen '66 bug!!!]

Might be time for *someone* to visit ebay motors and see what "an old
bug" is worth these days.  I sold my '68 steel sunroof minus engine last
summer for $1000.  It was rough.  But all there. If this '66 was "nice"
it's worth about $3k. If it's *really* nice, double that.
