What are these worth..help please.

[Mark73]

I am after some assistance on valuing two frames. They have both been fully expertly refinished, chromed, lug lined and decaled.
1st is a Raleigh RRA from the 50's I believe with a fork lock on it. Has been finished and british racing green, with half chrome forks and rear triangle.
2nd is a late 40's/50's Holdsworth Whirlwind. Finished black, lug lines etc with the same chromeing.
No pictures of them as yet im afraid.
Many thanks in advance.

I generally think that the number of potential buyers for this type of thing means that what it's 'worth' is hugely different from what your highest offer may be.

Look for similar on eBay etc.

I don't think classic bikes offer the same return on investment as classic cars.

When you do the pics, take some details of lugs, fok crown, etc.

The RRA had so many incarnations it's difficult to keep track.....

AFAIK Keith, it is an RRA. I saw it before respray and it had the original RRA transfers.

Perhaps the original owner was very security conscious
