I saw one being torn down when I was traveling from Abilene one day, many years back. I say torn down, as the owner was scrapping it and not trying to restore it at all. He claimed it was not worth the effort for parts and the cost of them at the time.
They look cool and I have always enjoyed Henry J's and even Morris Minors and the P544 Volvos I have owned in the past.

I still have fond remembrances of all of those small cars, including the Metropolitan and MGB. Heck, even my more modern Geo Metro convertible was fun to have owned.

NA, just not into city cars here. The small Fiat 500, in Europe is the top selling city car.
That's right.
Fiat is killing their best selling model in the US, the 500.
Go figure...
