Sandcast projekt ....what to pay for?

(1/7) > >>

Sgt.Pinback:
Here is what I could buy, my first SC:

SC with low VIN 2000, matching numbers, restoration basis, US import

What I can see: wrong -  front fender, - ignition switch, - horn, - alternator cover, - exhaust pipes, - seat, 2-hole airbox missing, no "28" carbs

Everything else needs a restauration.


What is it worth? 5 - 10, 10 - 15, 15 - 20 k€  given engine is free?

UK Pete:
Going on what they are fetching in uk it has to be around the 10-15 mark, probably cost at least another 5 to restore, its worth what ever you want to pay really, bearing in mind though you said in another post restored ones dont really sell well in germany

MeilakJ:
As Pete said ,

It depends how much you really want  it .

Is there a price on it already ?

Trigger:
I could stretch to £5K at a push ;)

Actually, I don´t realy "need" it.  Being a little tyred and having not yet finished the current project.

But on the other hand I can´t see a project sandcast in Europe so that´s a chance to restore a sandcast by myself.
And there must be a project after the project.

We are discussing in the 10 - 15 k Euro range.

The good thing is, that I have most of the missing parts: new HM300, new red sponge Yamiya KO seat, double cut frnot fender, recessed ignition switch, rear KO chain sprocket,  a pair of newly chromed rims, a new painted ruby red paint set (by Menno, still in the box).


Guys, I need some motivation!!

Lots of "8" bolts,

And an answer to some anorak questions:

- Looking a the frame angle, is this correct SC?

- valve cover (rev-counter gearbox) : correct SC?
