This board has been in a shed for couple of years but still in great conditions.
Are vintage boards worth any money or better keep it as great alternative?

Thanks

Nice looking old shooter. If I was going to shell out some hard earned funds it would be on an iconic brand. Something that is recognised nation wide or has a strong appeal to the local area but not specific to one town. Good condition and a cool spray helps. early thrusters are getting harder to find. I have been looking for an older santosha for a while but keep missing out. The santosha is more a personel thing than rather for a collection.

Yes they are. But as beastsurf said you need to have the right board. A friend of mine sold an MP for $5k a few months back. If you find that something special then you will be well re-warded - there are a bunch of people amassing some pretty impressive collections these days.

Check this guy out to give you some ideas of what is out there - he will let you advertise on his website as well.

There is also a bloke that arranges a yearly auction from Newport as well. I forget his name but will post it when I find it.
