What is the guess as to how much it will go for?
400, 500, 1000, 1500? With seven days to go I would think between 500 and 1000.
I'm no collector and if I had a spare 7 - 800 folding it would be a new quad rounded pin Friar Tuck for me!

Mitchell,
I've had both a thruster (rounded square 6') and a quad (fish 6') from David. Both excellent boards. Can not fault them. The quad especially is a
rocket that turns on a dime. So until he fails me he gets my business.
Seen the surf forecasts for this weekend!! Woohoo!

Nearly A$200, that's already more than I would pay for it!
Not in great nick.
Did you see that GG designs Flextail a couple of weeks back? A ripper.
...and the Erle Pedersen jet bottom last week... I was about to bid up to $450 with 5min to go ( it was 250 at the time)
& it shot past me; up to $635... heh; oh well.

I can only hope it goes for somwhere between 500-1000...i have had it sitting around for years and have decided (or been told!) to clean the garage
out so out the door a few boards go.

Hey Brendan, still going to Valla?
We may just hop in the KG and go, with fingers & toes crossed (& a few tools on board)
BTW, I had a ride on a 'Blast' quad a few weeks back, in dribbly surf; it went a treat, I didn't want to get back on the 'Flashpoint'...
cheers,
andy

A mate of mine has this board sitting in his shed.
I think he'll get rid of it. If your interested I'll get more details.

Andy,
Unfortunately I found a lot more rust in the 71 panelvan than I was expecting. Currently there is no front skin on it and I'm working towards getting
it back to it's former glory. Having said this the conversion has stalled and to make matters worse I haven't surfed in nearly 6 weeks!! Valla is
out for me this year. Hope to get it on the road for the Old Bar weekend.
Regards
Brendan
