For Sale LP 72’s - vintage but w/hydro

[jl in ca]

I recently bought a group of gear that included 5, LP 72’s. They are vintage, 3 have current hydro’s but all need visuals. One is the smaller valve. All seem like descent galvanized tanks but too small for me and I’m not going doubles. All have pressure. I’m in So Cal (Hermosa Beach). Not sure what they are worth - $50 each? Local pick up only.

With the tank shortage, they may have some value.... The 1/2" valve is "problematic" though.

Thanks, I figured the 1/2 inch valve tank may be an outlier but one mans trash... it does have pressure though and I saw an old post of someone looking for just a valve.

Why is the 1/2" valve problematic?? One can get a new replacement valve. Bit of pain to tumble but otherwise they are not a problem.

the cost of said new 1/2" valve....

and the LDS "creative license" in what they will accept....

To clarify, only that one tank has the small thread/valve. The other 4 have normal neck/valve combos. They are all yoke only valves (non-pro) but easy enough to replace if needed.
