I have no idea what the true market value might be but I do believe that I'd swap my front seat in hell for that sweetheart..

Recent examples are in the mid-teens (I know from wistful experience as a seller of a D-11) unless they're in finely-tuned playing condition (fat chance if they haven't been actively played and maintained. Mine was in decent playing condition, actually.) They need expert hands to get them right and someone will eventually want at least two more knee levers, so figure on spending at least low-to-high hundreds getting it serviceable. Not to exclude several psgeniuses hereabouts, but the ranking wizards for old ZBs here on the Forum are B Greg Jones, Kevin Hatton and Billy Knowles.

Thanks

$1250 tops. It needs two more knee levers and undoubtably a setup. Never saw a used one that didn't go through a ZB mechanic that played properly.
Once they are set up properly they play great. Key word is "properly". I've seen many that were messed up.
