eBay.com Completed auctions. A few dealers online also have a couple for sale on their web sites.

You sell at the shows too, don't you? You buying this for yourself or just to flip?

Was thinking of buying this to flip but was considering selling something to make room to keep it.

Looks nice but there are no record boxes and the lid support seems to be missing. Does the ID tag say VTLA or XVI? At $650 I don't think there is room to flip it but if you like it for yourself, go for it. Jerry

I have the lid support you need incase you purchase it. $650 is a decent price IF you are keeping it. It's only money!

My opinion is not worth quite as much as the other guys, less experience. But I have more in mine than this one costs, and from the low quality pictures, it looks to be in good shape. If it has not been refinished, I say "Yes" it is worth the $650. I'd of course offer less, but $650 is not bad. I have no reason to think it has been refinished from the photos.

PS. I'll trade you an XVIII for it. Just don't ask what shape the XVIII is in.....

I agree with Matt as the price seems quite reasonable, the motor alone is worth 350-450 alone ( though i wouldnt want it parted out) as I can attest while rebuilding mine. If you can get it cheaper, sauce for the goose.

Ps. Matt, I think your 18 looks great on the right side especially
