In my opinion, Scott, you would be foolish to sell this tent. Its value will
soon be evident by the number of listmembers who clamber to purchase it.

I am sure you are anxious to restore this van, but you have waited this long
to buy one, wait another few weeks to restore it. Here's why:

A TOTAL guess, but you MAY get $500 for the tent. I don't know earning
potential, but even in the worst case, you could earn $500 working a few
week's worth of evenings at Taco Bell, and keep your tent. Five or six years
from now, when you still have your  perfect-condition, "groovy", early '80's-
VW-original tent, you will be ecstatic that you didn't sell it.
