Supergoose value?

<< < (4/13) > >>

jT Racing:
sounds cheap for the team frameset. more of a motomag price. was this US?

bobafett:
One in the UK and one in the US - both around the 150 mark but both needed full strip down and re chrome in my opinion  ;)
The US one might have been saveable I suppose.......

jT Racing:
or nickel even :LolLolLolLol: i think they got chromed when they got different dropouts. Wouldn't part with mine for that measley sum. got an original coplete one(in bits :-[ ) i'm thinking of flogging, but i'd want a fair price for the complete kit.

bobafett:
Ah yes the old chrome / nickel on a supergoose 1 discussion hmmm - had a chat with kev (kdw712) about this not so long ago - if you look in the pdf catalogs from vintagemongoose.com the 1979-80 has the supergoose indeed listed as a nickel finish, however the 1981 catalog - still showing the supergoose with the same dropouts (no holes) has it listed as chrome another mongoose variant thrown into the mix  ;D
Maybe we should call the nickel one a supergoose zero  :LolLolLolLol:
I can see this discussion going something like the Proclass ID thread or even the legendary UK/USA supergoose 3 thread  :daumenhoch:
For those without the .pdf catalogs here are the supergoose specs from each :

yeh ive just experianced this because ive just bout an 81 supergoose but going by vinatge mongoose its a pre 81 frame because of the drop outs??????
