Yeah I just saw this, totally love the PF artwork, definitely a resto job to be approached with reverence, respect & above all skill!

I'd love to go for this one but I don't think I'm worthy of it :(

Go for it Rob, this bird's too old for the likes of me to screw around with.  I'll find something less precious to practice on ;)

Hope you grab it and that the biding doesn't get stupid.

 :lol thanks Evro!! not sure how i'd go with it but i'll give it a shot at the right price. Plastics do look pretty shot and some nasty playfield wear too. My bid reflects this  :lol

At last someone has put up a project pin with a sensible starting price!

But what will it go for in the end?

Theres pins in sheds all over the country.. problem here in brissy is that a certain dealer went on TV recently and stated that pins were worth $1500 - $6000.
 So now every joker that rings me up to see if i want to buy the piece of crap rotting away on the back deck reckons i should part with over a grand for it and be bloody grateful.
 My reply is to tell them to ring said dealer and demand their rightful $1500 for it, cos im buggered if im gonna pay it!

Bye bye project pins in Brisbane.. and yeh thanks Mr dealer!

old ops seem to have hidden treasure

i find alot of people say it sold for this much on ebay

then i get into the state to state prices ect with them and location

im 2hr drive from perth and find it hard to get interest as when im trying to sell something people dont want to drive down  ^.^
