Don, that would have to be a rare one. I can't remember seeing one.

Dave, can you post a pic of your 6 banger?
John,So, are you saying,"rare" as in not many were made, and/or, "rare" as in, if you find one, you will pay more for one?BTW, what would be a fair price to pay for a good used 350-12?Are COY
models likely to run more than basic Jetglo ones?

I had a DG 350 but sold it. :-( I'm saying "rare" as in not many were made. And I bet that they will sell for more than a JG. Especially in the future.......

I have a feeling that some of the less common models in Sea Green or Desert Gold are quite rare as they probably weren't produced in the numbers of subsequent COY's. I just don't remember people getting excited (at the time) about those two COY's - perhaps because they were very "non-traditional". I would bet that there were less than 10 350-12's produced, and as always, rarity=$$$. I once asked John hall about COY production figures, and it was something he was looking to compile when he had the time. As far as your question Don, I would think a 350-12 DG should go somewhere between $1500-2000 in excellent condition, but it could go higher to the "right" buyer.
