Simondo said..Price wise, I kinda think at least $1250, and perhaps up to $2250. I'm not real sure on the current value of that type of board though.
You best chance of Top Dollar, is probably an offer through here... Even eBay, under "make an offer". Buy it now of say $3,000...
Or give the guys at Keyo International a ring, for their thoughts...
I wouldn't pay that money though. I would put that sort of money into a custom board... Also, keep in mind that there a raft of shapers out there who can do exception "classic" boards, for about $1200-$2200, brand new... Depending on who is shaping, and what you ask for in terms of stringers and tints... That's the price range for a new one...
I would think that Johnny Gill at Keyo could rip you up a great replica, like the one in photos, for about $1500, roughly... But email him for a quote!

www.keyointernational.com/contact Omfg simon do u have half a bee's dick to what ur talking about? That sorta money is for pristine recon old mals or for 100% original old mals.
Firstly it has a broken fin, any old mal collector would rarely touch a old mal with a non original fin in it. Not to mention the repairs needed to fix it and make it water tight, also keeping true to style, sand back the gel coat, new gloss coat,re-apply a new blue gel coat.
Iv got a shipment coming of oldmals from the states the are fully restored old ,greg nolls, bings, dewy webers, hobies. I would be lucky to get $2500 for them
The truth is about this board is u would spend more in repairing the board then what u buy it for now. Unless u can find a 60's fin to put back in it, otherwise u wud put a good modern fin in it to make it a good rider for pleasure, or old mal events.
The only way this board as it stands would fetch around 1k would be if it was the first board bob mctavish ever shaped for keyo, or he did it naked, and u could get him to verify that.... Along with a foto.
It could also be a dog of a board with a twist or 5 inch fat rails.
