    It's worth nothing, nadda, zilch, zero. PM me your address and I'll come and take it off your hands. :-)

    If the condition is average maybe 150ish. If its great, like nearly perfect then maybe 200ish. You do have some upgraded parts there it looks like but I am not sure how much if anything they will add.

    You never know though, nostalgia is a powerful thing. Put it up on ebay for whatever money you are looking for and if you catch someone looking for exactly that bike in exactly that size you might attract a premium (e.g I would pay nicely for an immaculate original 21 inch Raleigh Record Sprint of similar era because it was the best bike I had as a kid). But you will likely be waiting a long time for that, maybe indefinitely.

    Unfortunately the 501 frame doesn't have much following. Id agree 150 to 200 but ebay is probably your best bet or one of the steel 80s facebook pages
