hope you got deep pockets if you’re fancying it…
what is the conversion of pounds to us dollars?
1.80
What dose one usually sell for?
and the contrast between the really really old logo glass and the brand new black and white around it doesn’t strike you as odd?
I wondered about the condition… did’nt Noll and Dora put out a ‘limited edition’ board not so long ago… Greg Noll [surfers path August 05] states that he and Dora made [had made] run of boards in 92… I wonder if this is one of them.
ebay is full of ripoff artist, buying and selling…
F#!K ebay
it could be a restoration, or it could be one of the phonies that were made in the 1990s and sold as originals, and it is definately not one of the limited addition runs. but hey it looks nice , i think they rode for shit too as miki never rode them anyhow.
I owned an original once upon a time, 9’6". It had the step deck and channels. Rode like shit. My 9’0" Yater spoon was far superior, not surprising Dora never rode one. The board in the picture looks original however refinished to look like a “black cat”.
Mister Doc sez -
'Can you say 'New Hotcoat in Black? I knew that ya could" - ’
Funny, I was hanging this week with an old buddy ( one of the TexarKana Surf Cowboys, Clint and Randall) , and back in the day we owned a real black cat. And we’d go to the beach, have a few and watch that sucker bubble.
Now, on this one, check out http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=7174541572&indexURL=3&photoDisplayType=2#ebayphotohosting
What do ya see? A black hotcoat, a beige ‘centerline’ and a very weathered /browned/funny thing, it’s a fake black Cat area around the sticker.
