The thing with vintage is the price can vary widely depending on what condition it is in and how anal you are about and any wear or damage. New built or restored with all new parts can be £200+. If you want a runner and don't mind about chassis scratches, considering the first thing that will happen if you run it is that the chassis will get scratched, between £30-100 depending on condition. The problem with valuing something as rare as a Top Cat is that they don't come up often enough for a value to be established, for more common cars you can just check completed listings on ebay to see what the going rate is. For a Top Cat it's probably going to be easier to buy a Cougar and convert the front end as there's more front suspension parts around than whole Top Cats.
The
Cougar 1 in my collection I picked up on ebay for £10.50. A new body, rear bumper, wheels and tyres makes it good enough for me as I prefer my collection to be as run with included race modifications rather than in perfect condition as I do like to run them every so often, no point buying a new unscratched chassis that's then going to get thrown around a track.
