This bike isn't worth much. It is a very heavy, lower end tandem. This bike needs a fair amount of work to make it road worth. Plus tandems are expensive to buy and very tough to sell in the used market. People love a bargain. I'd price it right around $25 so that someone takes it out of your home.

This appears to be a 1972 model. If so, the serial number will be stamped into the lower, non-drive side of the forward seat tube and should have a C or D-prefix. Single speed tandems from this period are a very hard sell and typically have negligible value.

If its anything like my Sears it flexes like mad. If you want to improve it, find a worthless rigid mtb to cannibalize for its fork, wheels, brakes and rear derailleur. Once you do that, they are not bad.

But yes, they tend to be worthless. Not easy to store these.
