Besides the Heads, the only thing that seems to be missing is the Basket that it was raised with. I could use the body, but I wouldn't want to have to buy it!

....but the shipping is only $170.75 (less insurance).

Too bad, it was a 10-10-16 Permanent from the early '60s. I have Bobby Garrett's 11-11-16 that's in the early stages of restoration.

that's it, I'm going yard saling and buy all the junk I can and put it on eBay, this is surely the land of oppurtunity. I can buy seven cords of firewood for that price, with this deal I only get one log, what a rip

This finally solves it!!! Time travel is truly possible. Aliens landed on the the Earth in the late sixties and traveled back in time to the days of the cave man. If you watch closely in the first few minutes of 2001 A Space Odyssey, the scene was played out by the apes beating on something with bones. Now we know what the something was. Arthur C. Clarke did have advanced knowledge of this in order to have it in the book nad the movie.

That's devastating, triple neck permanent Sho Buds are rarer than hen's teeth. You're all laughing now at that poor ol' thing, but as new that guitar was the King of The Hills. If all the parts were there I'd take the chance on restoring it, but seems like the headstocks ( at least ) are not there.
