What are they worth
Hey guy's and gal's I'm new to this hobby and got a couple of planes I am thinking about selling but I have no idea what a fair price would be so I'm searching for help here. I have a 1976 Cherokee Archer that has never been flown it has no electronics at all it is just as it came with a 40 Enya that has never been fired. Next I have a Goldberg Skylark 70 also with no electronics and I will have to pull it down to check the engine I think it is a 60 but not sure of the make it also has never been fired. Any help will be appreciated.

RE: What are they worth
Can you post a couple of pics? There are people out there who
are into flying older "Retro" Airplanes. And not just older pilots,
as I have seen a number older designs making a comeback
at our local flight fields this past year, being flown by young
pilots. I've seen 1970era pattern planes, Kaos's and other types
from the 70's/80's being flown recently, and the retro trend
seems to be growing, so I'm sure there are buyer's out there.
The fact that they've never been used wouldcertainly increase
their value.

RE: What are they worth
if any of those engines are open rocker four strokes, then you might be able to get a pretty penny for them. i've bid many time on NIB open rockers on ebay but each time they sold for more than $200. if your engines don't have the box and tools but are new (turn over easily, no rust mint condition) i wouldn't be surprised if you get bids of over $200 for each of those engines. the airframes i doubt will be worth anything close to that much.
if they are two strokes... well they'll be worth something but nothing to write home about!
