search ebay, but if it's in good condition I would say a couple hundred dollars

If epoxy, that board is probably unbreakable and would be valuable to a certain few. I bought a 6'4" Rusty back in 92 for around 5 bills and traded it in for another board 10 years later for 250 credit. Realistically? I think you might be able to get 2-300 tops.
FYI - almost every board is signed by the shaper.

I'd say at least $300 Probably more. ANy used board in real good condition coast a little bit of money. Idk what kind of bonuses you'll snag though. Take it to some shops or check around online

all surfboards (epoxy and polyester resins) are fiberglass, despite what most people think. people have the common misconception of calling polyester boards fiberglass, when theyre all fiberglass. fiberglass refers to the cloth, not the resin. as far as it being signed by rusty, that just means he shaped it himself. youre probably referring to the pencil signature on the stringer by the dimensions. These boards arent that rare believe it or not, so id say its probably worth a hundred bucks brand new, otherwise its less depending on condition. sit on it for a few decades, then youll have something to get excited about.
