I've seen a number of  2K4s in good shape going for  $700 to $800 (some 
higher and some lower)
Good amp for the price, but it's big, heavy, and as you say...no 160. I 
think they'd make a whale of a base for building up a more modern one 
though. Add a toroid and new band switch to redo the tank for 160-10. 
Lota work though to add one band.
