Vintage 70's Turner

Post by Adam Daniels » Sun Oct 16, 2005 1:08 am

Hey guys, i was watching the Farm 5.0 video and it rekindled my fascination of these boards. it also got me thinking how nice it would be to run the vintage race.

so my question, does anyone have a vintage Turner from the 70's that i won't have to pay an arm and a leg for?

sorry if that sounds stupid, but i have no idea what they are worth.

condition isn't an issue just as long as i can ride it (about 100 lbs)

Hey Adam. Here's a 70's Turner that i picked up a couple years ago. It's been well ridden and the nose has had a couple whacks, but the board is still rideable....I paid 200.00 for just the deck and i still think i got a great deal. It's worth more now

I dont really think you're going to find a real 70's turner deck for under 250.00 for a fullnose or 350.00 for an older model

Beware the people who advertise their boards as 70's boards. there's not allot of difference between the 70's ones and later models. If you're really in the hunt for one, do some research first. The pic below compares a 70's, 80's (?) and a 2001 model.

PS...yes, splitfire/Chindy is a great combo
