[Hallicrafters] Value of a restored SX-28?

[Phil LaMarche]

The 2000 dollar 28's were completely rebuilt.  Stripped and rewired with new
components.  Done by a friend of mine in Sarasota.  Looked better than new.

Hello Doug,
 
I bought an exceptional all original SX-28 all recapped and aligned with the
matching speaker for $850.00 two years ago in Milwaukee WI.
 
In some cases I have heard that a restored SX-28 going for around $2,000 but
that was during the Great Prosperity when jobs and loans were plentiful.

Hello  everyone,

I am new to this list and Hallicrafters  equipment.  I know a fair amount
about Heathkit but am just learning  about Hallicrafters.
Unfortunately, one of my first tasks is to put a fair  market value on a
radio from the estate of a good friend.  Wayne,  W4GBW, restored an SX-28
radio to what I consider gorgeous condition.   He spent several years on the
project and the quality of his work is  exceptional.

Sadly, we are now disposing of Wayne's gear  for his heirs.  They have
little interest in the equipment.  Can  the Hallicrafters fans here give me
at least a ballpark estimate of the  value of a beautiful, working SX-28?
Unfortunately, the radio is about two  hours away right now so I will not be
able to send any photos and I don't  know enough to answer any specific
questions tonight.

If anyone will be at the Melbourne, Florida hamfest on Saturday,  please
stop by and take a look at the radio.  I will be right inside  the main
doors and the table will be covered with Heathkit and other  vintage
equipment.
Thanks very much.



Doug   W4DAS
