In the 60's they were about $2.50 each. And a new Swinger was under $3,000.00. But we are not in the 60's. A mint Swinger now is around $30,000.00. Go figure? .

About 6 yrs ago I put some on Ebay. Some went for the opening bid of $9.99. most went for around $20.00. and some more. I am considering some of the offers I received just to get rid of them. There have been trades offered that are interesting also. But no offers rang the dinner bell yet. Steve
