What to do, advice needed
I have my almost new riding lawn mower on craigslist. And elderly couple came by the house to look at it. They liked it and asked if I would take a 1967 Harley Davidson and $500 cash. what do you guys/gals think?

In the mid-60's, Harley had about a 65cc bike. It wouldn't be worth much nowadays if that's what it is.

Cash talks..

If I get cash and something else I have to sell that I do not have experience with I consider it a lost cause/waste of money.

Do it. A running bike is worth at least $500, more if you part it out. Plus $500 cash, probably an ok deal.
