I seem to remember this item was on eBay quite some years ago. The description was something like this:
"A real steal at only $10,000 (or best offer). I will not ship, item must be picked up from my driveway. Lightly and lovingly used, with just a few very small dents and scratches. Overall appearance is very good. Pistons work fine. There may be a few alignment issues which can easily be fixed by your local repairman. Car horn is in Gbb. No case or garage available, but fabric top is pristine. Serious offers only."
