Do these have any value anymore? The Texas Star has Toshiba pills and the Stryker has the original box and 2 Astatic mic's one has a broken spring in the push to talk button. I will look around I thought I still had the original mic somewhere as well but not sure anymore been years.

The original Toshiba transistors in the 500 are worth a substantial amount of money these days.
I see 500's on different groups for anywhere from$300-550 range depending on what they look like.
Your example looks fairly clean inside, and built when the quality was a little better than the latest ones.
I would just gently run it......
Doubtful your ever find another one that clean on the inside.
