It all depends how bad you want it.I have alot of 70s bikes.Thats my thing.What parts are on the bike,what condition is the bike?If you really want it than say 550.00.If you can get a picture than post it for better info.I have bought many bikes whereI questioned the price.Also remember this bike may not be around anymore if you give up.Bottom line is that if this is a bike you have your heart set on and you have a few bucks to spare than own a killer 1976 Webco.
I would say $600 on the high side but it really depends on the parts and condition. Post a picture.

All depends on condition and components.
You would find if you tried to build up a period correct well equipped '76 Webco from parts, you'd never do it for that sort of money.
Very easy to sink a grand or two into any vintage build really.

^^ Absolutely correct ^^
If you want it and have the loot pay it.
Really what do you get for $500 / $600 these days.
I used to get good running cars for that.
Not any more !

Bro', don't you watch Pawn Stars?
Counter with $550 and take that sucker home.
If it has Webco mags/forks, you stole it.

the problem is- he says it's 1976 but it actually turns out to be 1979- upon further review. not saying this will for sure happen this time- I have just seen it happen all too often in the past. You need to ID it.

$600 is a great deal. Buy it, and then sell it to me for $700 and make a quick $100 profit!

As a 12 year old kid I wanted a 24" DG. No way I could afford it. Im now 42 and just found my dream bike. I paid $3000.00 and it was beat! Pay the $600.00 I guarantee you will regret it if you dont. GT.
