Title: twin stromberg value?
Post by: Dave on May 18, 2004, 08:15:49 AM
G'day,

I have a twin stromberg set up for a red motor on a Holden manifold with linkages that someone wants to buy off me - it came with my car and hasnt been run for a long time as far as i know - there are no air filters.

Does anyone know what price i should put on them?

somewhere between $200 and $250? i really don't know.  The bloke has been looking for a set for a few years and unable to locate any, so i guess he is keen?


I know you can still buy a manifold for about $100 new and strombergs are pretty cheap - why is it that the two set up together are so rare?

Thanks
Dave

G'Day Dave,

You can pick up twin stommies with linkages and a cleaner for about $250.00 here in Melb, such as the X2 Holden set ups.

So $200.00 to $250.00 is on the mark.

Steve.

i have sold two different sets of twins in last year and they both went for around $120-$140 ,for $250 id expect them to be very well polished with rekitted carbs and air cleaners to suit,the air cleaners are quite expensive,so without them id say $120 would be more the go.i just sold a set of 1.75 cd su's tripples for a red motor for $330 which i was happy with.
