Default Springer front ends, PLS help identify

A friend past away and I am trying to help his wife clean out/ sell parts that he had.

He had 2 springer front ends.
This 1 FLSTS, any idea of years used and $$ value??
There was a WO# on the side and the rubbers look new so I think he must have had it rebuilt??
there is 1 mark on the chrome that is shown in the last pictures.

thanxs in advance

Colin

If the first springer is straight, it may be worth around $750.00 eBay value.

The 2nd springer pictured above is worth nothing really. I was at an H-A club house party where they were trying to auction one. Keep in mind there were a few hundred people there and everything else was selling. But even at $25.00 nobody bid on it. Then the auctioneer help it up and say "FREE", still no takers. He just threw in into a scrap pile! It might have been high in damand in the 70's, but certainly not today.

Heritage Springer front end in chrome... 97-2003

Pic looks bent.

If it's not bent, an HD OEM goes for over $2k on ebay.

I'll take the older springer if she wants to give the thing away, I'll pay shipping if it's not an unreasonable amount.

it maybe the pictures and the angle I have it sitting?? I will take a better look to be sure.
is there anyway I can measure or is it just eye balled for staightness??
