If it is so crappy then I'll just keep it. I have someone asking for it and has offered $1200 and was just wondering if he was offering fair price considering it has linkage and carbs on it.

1200 if mostly complete is on the low side! I'd give that +!

When the economy was better, complete Tri Carbs were worth $2500-3500. AL, AU, AZ were the castings, with AZ the best.

Here are pictures of it. The carbs were rebuilt a long time ago but never run.

Cast iron, actually. Even if aluminum like the W30 ones, they are still cast.

Interestingly, one of mine has *exactly* the same date code: 83!
