1964 Raleigh Sports matching pair.
My son & I found these at a local bike shop down in the basement collecting dust, they still have all the original components down to the tires which surprisingly hold air but are dry rotted and wouldn't trust them on a long trip.
Were not even sure if we should clean them up, the wheels are still true and the Sturmey Archer 3 speeds still work great.
What are your thoughts?

Not worth much monetarily, but good riding city bikes. Won't stop well if it is raining. If you bought them for a bike to knock around on, they will be great. If you bought them to make money on, then you may be disappointed.
