Have barely used it recently, just keep it because it's a nice object, so selling my beloved Hasselblad.
I bought it as pretty much unused from a guy in Miami who had it from new and have used it fairly lightly myself, taking care of it. Lens and all optics blemish free.
I checked the serial numbers when I bought it and if I remember correctly it dates from 1963, the transition period between 500C to 500C/M. Hence why it has the 500C label but the 500C/M features.
Comes with:
A genuine Hasselblad lens hood, that I got second had and battered but does it's job well.
An Optech strap that is nice to use.
A Sangamo Weston light meter. My dog chewed it and I didn't replace it as it works fine.
Watertight yellow bag it fits into.
2 rolls of Velvia 100 and a Provia 100 in the chamber.
Here are a two pictures from 2013, I'll take some fresh ones when I can get to a camera to show current state (which is the same).
Brilliant camera that I wish I could hold on to but have no real need for.
I am down in Camberwell or could cycle to central for viewings.
£650

I did have an account on here before the resurgence but don't know how to log my old account. So I am user655321 for now.
This is my grandfathers Dawes Windrush. He bought it new circa 1960 and has ridden it sporadically since then. He has kept it in a garage or shed wehn not being ridden. It's mechanically sound but surface rust can be seen on the handlebars and scratches on the frame. All but the pedals and rear wheel are original.
There's an integrated dynamo on the front and a bag that plops on the back. The dynamo hasn't been plugged in in a while so I don't know about it's functionality. The bag is original and attaches as it should. Has an odd insertion mode, the bag only opens to a large letterbox size slit coming out the side under the flap.
I can only find a few sales on the web of them and none have a price listed so I have no idea what to put. Any info there would be used as I have nothing to go by. It's not a shiny bike and would be a project so I shouldn't be expecting much.
// I'll ask for £200 for now.
Now asking for £160.
Please correct me.Photos are up here Here we go : http://imgur.com/a/8PRgv
Bike is in Sussex. Would be able to bring to Victoria Station if convenient.
