After taking a closer look at the photos on eBay, it appears to be an older restoration with some miles on it. It's not going to win top prizes anymore, but it's perfect if you're more interested in using it as a "driver."

That said, the "Buy it Now" price is top retail. Realistically, it should be ready to win the top prizes. It's moving into the price range of accepted and desirable "Classic Cars", which hold their value much better than the junior series cars, and usually move up in value faster.

It's okay to overpay for the right car, though, if you are not intending to get your money back in the short term. The nice thing about this car is that it doesn't have to be re-restored in order to bring it back to show condition. The last one could not be upgraded without restoring it completely.

Good luck!!!
