I spied this online and wondered what I was looking at... is this a VTLA XX? This is the only picture I have and no information on condition or even if it is complete. What is something like this worth as is?

That’s a model XX! : Get. it. ASAP.

It’s at an estate sale in a week. I’m tempted to ask what they want for it.... what is a fair price considering that nothing is known about it?

I’m usually paranoid of low balling people. But I would start at $300 and see how it turns out.

I would have no problem offering a grand without knowing what's under the lid.

Good luck at the auction.

Hello all,

I want to thank everyone for all their help and advice. As cool as I think this VTLA XX is, I think that I am going to hold off on it. I may still take a look at it, but I don't think I will seriously consider it.
Here is the link to the ad.

If only it were closer to me!

It is already gone.
