It’s worth exactly one divorce.
The ole divorce machine. Sometimes they come with pedals, other times paddles. Always the same result.
it looks pretty cheap, steel rims? usually a decent giveaway for this time period. edit: kinda hard to tell. but if brake levers are plastic, etc – also a decent giveaway.
that said, I always have a soft spot for goofy bikes like this with fun old graphics. would be a fun bar bike project.
Probably about $500 based on these prices

It might be fun to ride a few miles to the coffee shop on the weekend. Not much $ value.
Bike looks great, get a new wife!
How much did you pay?
A tandem takes you in the direction your relationship is going, but FASTER.
She’s tripping. Maybe take the seat pads off of it or put a couple cool saddles on it?
Those seats look awful. If i saw those seats i wouldn’t be happy either.
Tandem cyclists like to say that wherever your relationship is going it’ll get there faster on a tandem.
Ignore all those who are calling it a divorce horse. Yes, a tandem will last bare any communication issues that exist in the relationship, but if there are not any major ones then you’ll be fine.
Remember to call out bumps. You’ll see them coming, but she will just get a surprise to the taint.
That is the a famous Quentin Tarantino it has a very specific audience that highly values it.
I heard a thing where whenever a guy tried to buy a tandem from a certain bike shop, one of the employees would insist on him taking it for a test drive- with the employee driving and the prospective buyer in the stoker seat. The employee would proceed to take the prospective buyer on a harrowing ride down the steepest hill around, weaving in and out of traffic, etc. etc. Arriving back at the shop, the employee would admonish the pale, shaking prospective customer to remember, that’s what your girlfriend’s gonna feel like in the back.
She just doesn’t like the seats. Switch em out
Brakes don’t seem very efficient, you’ll get some good scares out of it ! The reach for the passenger seems awfully short, your wife will have her knees to the handlebar…
Make a swing bike, but a double swing bike!!
Tandem rider here , just seems your a flipper
Best of luck selling
I’d send you in a direction to learn but seems a waste of time
The market for tandems is narrow. I would suggest bringing the bike to any group rides or cycling events in your area.
Upsell
