There's an inflation calculator at http://www.westegg.com/inflation/ but it's only to 2001.

But that Cinelli for $795.00 in 1971 would be "ahem"... $3487.29 in 2001! The Super Record Masi I bought in 1980 for $2000, would be $4683.51 in 2001. The calculator also works in reverse, so the used Cinelli I bought last year for $1200, would've been $273.56 in 1971...
