Hey fellas, Just scored a board off a chap buying my car (long story short, I got it for free).

Just wondering how much shes worth?

6"9 Mt Woodgee Board, With "Shaped by Wayne McKewen" On her. Shes got a few, what look like small dints on the back (Most round in shape) you can see a few in the picture. its not that bad, But im not sure what this does to the value.

Bit of waxy build up (I dont know crap about boards guys), Not sure if its ment to look this way or not. But either way, here are some pics:

Any advice you guys could give me would be great

Cheers Fellas.

Clean it>Put it on Ebay>reserve $200 and wait and see.
Probally only worth about $50 though really, but ebay punters are a funny breed.

Goodluck mate

Yeah I was thinking it wasnt worth much, (what are the factors that make it worth less / more?) But I wanted $170 for the car, he offered $170 + Surfboard, So of course im going to take the offer lol.

Even if i get $1 for her, its $1 in my pocket :D

If it was white and with minimal dings it could be worth as much as $350, really depends on the measurements, which should be written along the stringer on the bottom of the board just fwd of the fins. If the measurements are inline with what most guys ride then its going to be easier to sell and at a better price.
Post up teh measurements and i'll give ya some feedback

Old yellowing boards aren't really worth much

Nup, Was a Mazda Famila Rwd Wagon. I paid $400 with 5 months rego (i figure the rego is worth that alone).

Rebuilt head, new radiator, new battery, new clutch, Old man owned it before me and was moving to Nz

Pretty cool surfie wagon, I should have tryed to sell it here.

But yeah, I wanted $200, but figured nah, $170 will do. She had a few issues though, No Roadworthy, No Rego, needed a bit of fixing up, but meh.. It didnt worry me, I just wanted rid of it as im moving to the big smoke.

I just had a quick look, theres nothing written on the board anywhere near the fins, on either side (or the sides). apart from that Wayne Fella's name at the very bottom. And I searched up to about half way up the board.....

Is that odd?
