if the cups inside the hub are smooth then theres nothing to worry about, its still usable, just rebuild it, new Axel and bearings are cheap to get. even if it isn't usable, its only a wheel. replace with another.
ammaco are a funny brand, they've been around for ages, based in maidstone originally and the name stands for "A Malcolm, Malcolm And Colin Organisation".

I've got one of these I gave to my dad, they're cool little bikes. I think the frame is essentially a Carlton continental. any 27" Raleigh or Carlton from the era will be more or less the same, should you need a donor.
they're a bit agricultural to ride but a lot of fun.
someones already had a go at polishing it in the past as it should have either a red or blue tint fade on the lugs in to the middle of the tubes like in that pic above. water and Brillo pad is my go to for chrome then autosol and soft rag for a final polish.

It's a medium, off the peg bike plus a couple of platform pedals.
It's the current and last Cinelli mash apparently.
I've used it about three times. Not got around to putting a brake on or any foot retention and starting to wonder if I will.
It looks nice in my lounge but the money looks nice in my account as well.
It's about as close to new as I can really describe.
I'm in Brighton if you would like it.
£950. Cheapest deal I can find is £100 more from a shop. I bought for £1150 earlier in the year.

It's the classic/traditional thing that people buy in to. He spent years improving the strat with the musicman sabre, which was the first guitar he designed after selling fender but it didn't really catch on. Every aspect was meant to be an improvement over a strat. People never seem to want new ideas with guitars. Just the old stuff in abundance.
G&L are better for the most part but not the same. I can only think of a few guitarists who have used them. That might be another reason, just not in people's conscious?

Campagnolo Zondas, nice condition, they have been used and have associated marks consistent with use. the front is better than the rear. The rear has had a brake block run too close to the inside so a bit of the decal has worn off on one side (see pic). There are also odd scratches (see pics again). Probably about three or four of those. The front is free from that sort of thing. The freewheel has a small amount of play but is still useable if you just want for a beater. If you're starting fresh though it would be best to slap a new one on there. Also the skewers are shimano but I think they're off 600 hubs and are quite sleek, so don't look out of place.
They polish up nicely and still look good. Very solid and don't actually weigh all that much. Very usable and quite presentable still. They're not minters but good to very good I would say.
Budget shamals at the end of the day.
I can post or collect in Brighton. Postage would be around £15 at a guess.

its almost always protruding axle, which several others have said. its super quick and easy to check...
