I have no connection with seller , just love the look of the condition. I've had a few T&C's when younger and if i had the will (and wife didn't have it me in her pocket) this would make unreal board art on a wall

I might have to try and find a few picks of my old boards.

Maybe a thread with the old classics's would be cool.

Nice jb. As groms we all wanted a T and C board. And the Santosha sticker sets it right back into the eighties. In good nick too.

Well, what does everyone think it's worth?
I reckon $450
Actually would prob buy it at that price.
It's a slice of surfing Perth history, being santosha and all.

If I had a wall to hang it I'd pay $450. I agree $800 is too steep but then I guess it's worth what someone's prepared to pay. My wife would have kittens if I bought another board this week

I saw that before you started the thread, I would buy it at that price. Tbh I recon its worth a bit more. How often are you going to see a board of that age in that condition?
