    Post some pictures of the bikes, this will give us a better understanding of what you have.

    A good rule of thumb, if its old and in good shape, its worth more than scrap to a collector. Even if you get $5 - $10 for each one, that is more than scrap value. But you could possibly get a lot more.



    Pictures are worth a thousand words, and we like pictures.
