Pretty good pic., it come out sidewise, but that happens to me 'n alota guys here. I'm not sure a the value on these. I've heard a the side- plates themselves goin for $50-250, depending on the seller/buyer characteristics and current market situation.
Are the other parts on the reels(gears, frame, spool and handle/knob) Accurate products?

Thanks for your post.  I,m thinking 🤔 at the low end maybe 75$ each side.  As a pair maybe more.  You can advertise them here for sure and get a good audience as these are great for people who are building hot rod reels and gold is a popular color.  Good luck,  don't  be shy ☺️.

I've seen complete accurates like that in the 150-250 range, big help if they have the accurate gears too. Some of the odd ball colors go for a bit more.  Ebay sold listings give a pretty good idea of value.
