I sold a pretty nice 78 a while back for around $450 I think. Can’t remember exactly. For $800 it would have to be really nice. Just my 2 cents.

Dropping it to $500 OBO. Adding to description above; re-upholstered seat, new fuel lines, gas tank removed & cleaned, exhaust painted black w/high-heat paint. Have about 10 hours on it since rebuild. Strong runner.
