Hi bald1. My condolences to your friend. The Twin Spinner could be worth a fair bit depending on condition. Even in poor condition they can fetch a good bit of coin, but they make for a very kool cruiser and a very nasty Kustom should you choose to go down that path.

Cheers, Adam.

Yeah they seem to come out of nowhere hey when there is a classic piece of tin. If you really want it, negotiate a price that both partie's are happy with. That way you wont feel like you have short changed them and they will be happy also.

$1500 for a bare bones rolling shell thats seen better days, 3-5k for a very good restorer up to $20k for a restored. From what you have said at a guess about 4K

Its worth what they are willing to pay. Start taking offers and see where it gets you

Read the first post he is the one wanting to buy it, not sell it to someone else....

And I have no idea what these things are worth.
