I have a 1957 WRL Globe King 500A with WRL Model 755A VFO..Condition is good ,have spare 4-250 final amp . what's it worth?
Wow, you've got a really desireable boat anchor rig.
High power AM back in the 50's was a rarity -- most hams ran 50 watts or less unless they had a Collins, Heathkit DX100, or a Johnson Viking, or Valiant.
Somone was custom building a replica of these, asking $3000 or so for a copy.
I'd say it should be worth around $700-800, on up to over a kilobuck depending on condition.
