wholy crapolie Hooch..
That is SWEET!!!!

does it have any value..yes my Friend it sure does.
I sold my "Kuwie Made" Nashiki..which is about the same year
( 1982-83 ish ) with the same "Butted Tube" Chromoly Frame,
and mine was just as MINT but in a Mens.

The way that the Brake Cables come out of The Hand Brake set-up ( at the top like that ) is an Indication it's Pre-1984 Nashiki Hooch

I listed mine on "The List" for $150.00 and had 40 E-Mails in 5 minutes.
My Roadie Friend said I could have got $350,00 Canadian
because of it quality in it's make.

I would say it's well worth $250.00 to $300.00 American Hooch..
EASILY!!!

hope this helps..
here's a Picture of The One I sold.

Check that last reply Hooch.....
I just looked again at The Pic's again...

That thing is MINTY fresh MINT!

$350.00 American..and List it as a Vintage Chromoly Nashiki
if your going to sell it.

It is well worth it and you wouldn't be insulting anyone for asking that!

peace,
Kev.

I got 22inch rims on mine, IMO the best size for this frame.In Aus its hard to find 22 inch stuff, maybe not for you guys up north..


Go for the springer front, unless ya going to rake the front alot, I cut 2.5 - 3 inchs from the two top tubes on mine.

So far looking real good..


Go the MIXTE..
