Feelings about a Zenith S-829
#2

As my grandfather said many times, it's worth what someone will pay you for it. Honestly I don't know what they are going for but any brand Z that is somewhat rare will bring a decent amount of money. I have 5-S-319, which isn't as desirable, and I've seen them go for north of $300 restored.

Where are you located in Indiana? I am way up North central, a little bit east of South Bend. The antique shops up here seem to be radio deserts.
