Let's have some fun with this. 5 days remaining, 14 bids, current bid $81.
What is your guess for final selling price? Closest wins (over or under).
My guess - $245.00

$300 it has the box lol,
every radio I’ve bought from goodwill I’ve had to fix before I could use it. The cobra 148 gtl had a bad diode that caused the power fuse in the power cord to blow as soon as you turned it on, the channel display on the trc-465 was completely burned out. I had to reflow like half the board on the cobra 25ltd, before the recieve came back...
I feel like there’s a lot of people that pay way,way to much for these old radio’s, and then are very disappointed when they don’t perform like new, then they either have to spend like another 200 hundred dollars sending it somewhere to get fixed, or they just throw them away.

Taiwan made. Serial number isn't too clear, looks like maybe 1986.
Probably gonna need electrolytic capacitors. Might get away with just the worst 10-Volt parts. For a while.

There's' the Minimum bid, $102
Then there's the Current - highest bid... $101
LOL - no takers...yet...
Just don't want to take too much credence in the fact that of their claim "No power cord" Yet one is shown in the photo. Tends to make me feel that this is a File copy shot, a "Stock photo" of the type of item, not the current condition of the item.
Serial number - I concur with Nomad, about 1986 by Serial plate - again possible "Stock on File" photo Cobra used High Vis Orange and then switched to Sky Blue (Wording) with photos later - about the same time they went to KEPC from their Uniden roots.
Caveat Emptor! Here!

It's closest over or under, not Price is Right, you might want to revise your guess
If you want to beat the current bid minimum bid is what is required. Currently has 19 bids.
