Thanks all!

Architect I was gonna PM you in particular for info. So thanks.

I'm settling in on $4500-5k for both. A local builder of shovels gave me quite a bit of guidance this morning. And he basically agreed with what most of you said.

I'll report back if I can make this happen.

You walk away for 6 or under you stole them. Early cone shovels that clean and unmolested are getting scarce.

I wouldn’t sell it...you’ll regret it. I wish I still had my 71 that I sold 10 years ago. I built that bike when I was 17 and had it done on my 18th Birthday. Wish I still had it for one of my boys to bomb around on.

Bay Area that would 7K or so..... Where you are do your homework, compare visual condition and going prices in a 2 or 3 state area, that will give you a base to play with

I would only do the deal if the seller included that super nice bowling trophy in the background of pic #2. But, that’s just me...
