Sorry if this is the wrong room. If it is, please feel free to move to the appropriate area.

I'm looking at a 1951 Roadmaster. It looks to be a Luxury Liner. Good shape, just needs polished up. Does anyone know what it might be worth? I can't find any good resources on the topic online, hopefully someone here can help. Don't plan on installing a motor, just riding and selling eventually.

Thanks in advance.

Luxury Liners were repro'd a number of years ago, and whether you have one of the original ones or newer ones can make a difference in the value. Having said that, the repros are not cheap either. A quick check of recently completed auctions on eBay showed originals and repros (in new condition) having both sold for the same kind of money - in the $500 range, with some used repros down around $350 - $385.
