Default Sun Engine Analyser...What's it worth?

Curious as to what these are worth. The first Sun Eng Analyser includes the bench underneath, hard to see it due to the other one sitting on the floor in front of it. This one's vaccume guage is inop.




This one doesn't have a bench and everything works. The owner says he has all the wire leads and hookups NOS in addition. I would like to buy one for myself but have absolutely no idea what they are worth.

I've seen them go for between nothing and $500. It really depends on the day of the week not necessarily the condition. The big problem is that these things are huge and virtually unshippable. You also have to have all the acessories and the manuals or else you'll be nickel and diming yourself for years searching for that stuff. If it is not complete, pass on it.

I've been looking for one for a while but they all seem to be out west. My buddy who runs an old car repair place here in town found one for free that works great. It was the same one he trained on 40 years ago. He works on a lot of old cars and I'd been bugging him for a while to get one so I could use it.

The one on it's original bench will bring more then the other,usually $6-800.00 if everything else is there too.
Most of these were removed from their benches,never to be re-united again.
If you are passing on either one,I'll step up.

Rick,
I will give the guy a call when I have some time and see what he says, he wouldn't divulge a price and I had no idea what the value was. I will let you know.

Here's some shots of one of our Sun machines...



Lit up...



Goodies inside, set of R44s, AC Tune Up book with original Yenko Chevrolet label, and a couple of smaller Sun machines from the Yenko dealership...



Tag along Sun spec box with about 2 decades worth of specs...



And a bonus shot of a few goodies to the adjacent left of the Sun machine...



Anyway, this is the 2nd large engine analyzer I've owned...this one came from downtown Chi-town somewhere...the other one I sold last summer, and was darn glad to get *anything* for it! Finally got 1 bid on Ebay, and I hauled it halfway across the state for a $100 first and final bid! The things are neat, but their HUGE, hard to handle/transport/ship, and were worked hard during their lives. But, they look good all it up!
