A little help with values. I'm new

On Training Wheels
I have always liked motorized bicycles but never really had an opportunity to join the fun. I have an opportunity to jump into this hobby in a big way. I found these items recently and need some help with values. I realize many factors go into determining this, but I just need ballpark figures so I don't insult the owner or make a bad purchase. Thanks for your help.

1 Marman twin-Road Master frame
1 Whizzer sportsman
1 Whizzer not sure what model. Virtually brand new. Road master frame
1 Power bike on a Columbia frame.
All will Run, they just haven't for 20 years or so.
All late 40's or early 50's era.
Probably enough parts to build a couple more.

That's some high quality merchandise. I'd say if you could take it all home for less than $7,000 you'd be winning. It could be worth a lot more if we could see what's in those boxes.
 
I saw the front in one photo, and more in the reflection of the Marman tank... looks like it might be a convertible?

Looks like you Might? have been at fred white estate auction? How was it? Missed that one badly...wish I could have attended

What did you have pay for the bikes?
 
I haven't bought anything. These belong to a good friend who is thinking about selling.
I just had the opportunity to get them running and cleaned up after sitting for about 20 years.
We're still considering things....
