Subject: [TR] TS1 all over again?

I've no idea how much it cost the current owner of TS1 to repatriate it from
Hawaii but today's Hemmings Blog informs me that someone in the UK has
recently paid $65,000 for XLL 27 - the eighth Austin Se7en to roll off the
Longbridge line in 1959. If this rustbucket is worth that much, makes you
wonder how much Mini #1 at BMIHT is worth? From the pix, will it take another
65k to get it halfway decent? IMHO, allow the patina of rust and dust to
prevail and leave it alone in a nice dry garage or museum for others to enjoy
as it is.
