WTB: Old Skateboards (80's & early 90's)

[SLCKVR6]

I am attempting to cover my garage wall with oldschool skateboards. If you have one laying around collecting dust, I'd be happy to give you some cash for it. IM me if you have one.

thanks,
Nick

I don't have any boards man but that is a cool idea. Especially the old 80's board the Original Tony Hawks with the Hawk head and the old Powell Paroltas. Those are probably collector items in these days. I now ride the long boards, to big to ride street anymore.

Good luck dude.

nick you should do one side with boards and the other with broken cooling components from the rado...on second thought that might take up both sides of the garage.:dunceblock:

Old boards are supposed to be very very collectable. My best friend's cousin just sold half of his collection to help pay for a harley davidson. I had SOOOOO many boards back "in tha day." I bet I had 75 skateboards between 1986 and 1992 and they were all popular like gonz, hawk, natas, etc etc etc. Memmmmmmmories!!!!

somewhere I have a old alva bill danforth (or is it danworth whatever). has some delamination that I wood glued back together, other than that it looks pretty sweet, I will try to find it and get some pics,I might let it go if your interested.
like 5 years ago I made a bad mistake and sold 2 mint condition rodney mullen freestyle decks with teh skeleton and chess pieces. damn i hate i did that.

no one used to skate with old school santa cruz decks?!..or what about the old school cheapo board..thrasher i think it was called..hand the circular saw blade graphics on it

[86vwgti8v]

there was one I think it was called the "rip saw" had 3 blades in a row and the shape to match the teeth.
I forget who made it though.
I had a few santa cruz's been so long I cant remember exatly which ones they where, rob roskop, jeff kendall, natas (that was a santa monica airlines but I think they where the same co.)

I was going through vhs tapes the other day and found several old bones brigade, h-street and 411 videos. the bones brigade has mr. hawk freshly signed to powell in that era

Hell yeah I had that one.... a few of 'em. Get this... yesterday the neighborhood 10-12year old kids were all in my driveway messing with my kids and so they see my skateboard in the garage. They started asking me if I could still ride it. I said no, but went ahead and risked life and limb anyways. I landed a perfect kickflip varial to their amazement.... and to mine. hehe.

I still have my Sims Jeff Phillips pro board. It's pretty torn up, but my kids get a kick outta it. Damn.... I had some other boards too over the years. That coulda paid for a Harley???? C-R-A-P! I probably coulda bought an OCC chopper with all the boards I had then. Don't even get me started on the bikes too. Freestyle.

Don't even get me started on the bikes too. Freestyle.

Oh I know.... I GAVE away an 84 Haro master about 9 years ago. If I had known that I'd now have 2 boys that both love bikes as much as they do I'd still have that sucker.

I sold an old Steve Salba, Santa Cruz Board 2 years ago and got 700 dollars for it. Old boards are collector items now. If I find anymore I'll let you know- yard sales are the best place to find the old ones.
