What size are they? 15" or 16-1/2"?
Either way size doesn't affect value too much in this case.
Globe Body value - 200 - 250
Mobilgas Lense - 150 - 200 - Looks like some fading in places.
Mobilgas Special Lense - 200 - 250 if the taped areas clean up well.
Mobilfuel Diesel Lenses - 650 - 800 for the pair - if the tape cleans up well.
This also assuming that the pictures have a lot of reflection in them. if there is any fading or paint loss the price goes own pretty quickly.
Hope this helps. Thanks.
Mike Haggard

Be sure the tape hasn't stained the lenses!
I think Mike is pretty close on the values.
I'd put the body at $225.
The Mobilgas Special lens at $200,
the M on the Mobilgas lens looks weak. If so I'd value it at $125-150.
And the diesel lenses at 750-900 for the pair.
