Coincidentally, I also got it for $200 from an uncle. I have no idea what it would be worth now, since it was a Minnesota car, and therefore a pile of rust with an engine. I replaced the hood with one from a junkyard (not the same color). One door opened only from the outside, and the other only from the inside, so I always entered from the left and exited from the right. The high school population of today probably has access to used cars of later years at more reasonable prices. Time moves on.
