There is a vintage forum here (http://bikeforums.net/forumdisplay.php?f=181). Your question will probably get better answers there.

Im from Birmingham UK,

I worked in a bike shop last year which did a lot of restoring/selling old road bikes.

most were 70's-80's but some were as early as 1930's

most of the 70/80's ones were Dawes, 60s ones Raleigh, earlier ones Royal Enfield/Hercules.

We sold em for around £60 / $120 each

Although I am aware the same sort of bikes would fetch twice that in london where it is super trendy to ride a vintage road bike.

I guess Dawes might be worth more in the US too.
