I wouldn't give more than $50.00 for it, but that's just me.

Well, outside of the fact that it's probably the rarest of all showrod kits other than the Ghost of the Red Baron (which kinda isn't even a showrod itself), it's really not even a "great" kit.
As with most of those old Pyro kits, it doesn't fit together worth a darn! I can only imagine the frustration from kids back in the day trying to assemble that thing with the old style glues. I struggled with Curtis' build, and still had some issues despite my knowledge of fixing such things, mostly with the stage body itself. It was warped a bit from age or whatever, and the pink plastic in this kit is very brittle.
I was pleased to have had the chance to build it, but I wouldn't pay that kind of money for it! I wonder where the old Pyro molds are?

Sweet Box Art, I've wanted one for a long time! After seeing the pieces in that box, I'm not so sure. I believe a kit bash would look a lot better. My 2 cents... Bill
