Huntington Custom Board (posted by peter51)

I need some input on an old Huntington Custom board. It's pretty old but in excellent shape. I haven't used it since the mid-seventies.
It's a 10 footer and I have no idea what it's worth now. I don't even remember what I paid for it.
I've attached a recent photo that I've taken of it today after I cleaned 10 years of dust off. I just want to get an idea of what a fair price for it would be.
Thanks

I agree JD, that's a very nice looking board!

Also looks to be more than 10foot, unless peter51 is very short! :lol:

Thanks guys. It's a hair longer than 10'.
I used to take it out to Jones Beach on Long Island when I lived in NY many years ago. I live just outside of Charlotte, NC now....There's always the Outer Banks here now.

Well if you are interested in selling, I am in VA, just pitch a number, because I don't really know one to pitch either :lol:

How much does that sucker weigh?

It looks frickin' sweet. I wouldn't let it go for too little (sorry Tom), but as for a price IDK.


Depending on how easy it is for you to get it to a shop, you could probably get an estimate from someone there.

Haha, all cool, I'm not going to try to rip him off or anything.

Watch for the surfshops though, if you have a close friend that is an experienced board collector, that'd be much better to go to. A lot of shops aren't too straight. Also if you post it up on swaylocks they could probably point you in the right direction.

You have a picture of the bottom? I'm guessin a big ol' football fin.
