Sell them. I bet if you look at virtually any saw, and adjust for inflation, the NIB price wouldn't be significantly more than purchase price. There might be a handful of exceptions, but a 372 was too mass produced to ever be considered an investment. The Solo Twin was introduced in 1965. If it sold for $500 then, that would only be ~$3500 today. If I remember correctly, a couple of never-run Twins sold a year or so ago. One was in the neighborhood of $2500 and the other was ~$3300.
AND with that said... even the Stihl 090 has not significantly appreciated in value.
Agree, I watched a NIB 090 last year top out arounf $2,500 guessing the adjusted cost from the original MSRP puts the cost round about the same... and believe they still sell in other countries for around $2k USD.
