$125, I think, plus another $25 to deliver it. The book and speeedchanger are worth that much!

Nice score, Steve!
Unfortunately, I'm not the guy who scored up the Dayton 10ER with speed changer for $100. While I was trying to figure out how quickly I could make the 3-hour round trip, and where the heck would I put it if I got it, someone else snapped it up.
Fortunately, I only slobber serious drool over stuff that I need or want for my own personal use. The buy-it-for-resale stuff is always tempting, but for me, logic manages to prevail over lust in those situations.

Dennis, this investment wasn't for resale. (Well, maybe, in the future, when parts are REAL difficult to find.) But for my own use, or back stock. ("They ain't printin' any more ERs, so get what you can.")(Or, be forced to use something named after some guy named Mark. Sorry, couldn't resist!)
But, if a member here was to ask if I had something, I would help them out. (Provided I had the part, and a back-up for myself.)
Like I said earlier, except for the way tubes, and the factory legs, I can fit an ER into 2 rectangular milk crates. (Mostly.)

Mike, I am in Michigan and have a 10ER and a 10E. Both have speed changers and both have been restored. I am asking 250 plus shipping for each. Save you a lot of work and they are awesome to look at too. Don't know how much shipping would be. If I can't sell them for that I will part them out and make more money. Just hate to do that in case someone loves them and appreciates quality!
Now that is a DEAL

Wow a 10E & 10ER restored. I would jump on that deal like a Duck on a June Bug.
