I have an opportunity to buy a 1955 ES 2 for $2000. It has been sitting in a garage for 30 - 40 years, the owner died a while back and his wife now wants it gone. A tentative price of $2000 was offered by the two sons who know nothing about it or care.
Mostly rust free
Both fenders are gone
The dual seat needs replacing
Everything else seems to be there
The tank appears to have no dents and in good condition from the photos but could use some paint
The frame is the one just before the featherbed.
I was told it turns over
no idea of the mag's condition
Tires of course are shot.
It is a very good candidate for restoration
Any idea of it's value? I can do 90% of any work required
