That's not what I was looking to hear. If the grips are valuable, how about the tires? I'm pretty sure it had the original tubes in it. But, I disposed of all that stuff.
From what I've seen around, I'm guessing 60s. I want to fix it up with modern components and paint it. Would i lose a lot of value by doing this? I paid $30 for it, so it I'm not exactly in the red, but I might try to sell it after it's clean and ridable.
serial was hard to read but 02462010179167. I paid $250. I replaced the tires, grips and pedals. I basically want to know if I'd be a fool to continue to modernize the components and spray paint it. I like the vintage look, but this is my daily rider.
