Cameano Nov 4th, 06, 4:33 AM That'll buff out. ;) GRN69CHV Nov 4th, 06, 5:21 AM Two bids, up to 1500.00 and still not hit the reserve. Can't be more than 50.00 in scrap metal there, maybe someone with too much money needs a tax write off this. TDW Nov 4th, 06, 7:00 AM I have rebuilt bikes that were in worse shape. That could be a nice one when done correctly. It looks like most of the major parts are there. The transmission is worth more than the high bid. itsa_ss Nov 4th, 06, 7:51 AM i also think it could be cool when done right.

This is the same type of thing someone who knows nothing about cars would say if they saw you hauling home a rusted out/trashed but complete SS396 car. :waving: Gazzer Nov 4th, 06, 11:01 AM Good Grief, it's up to $4,500 ???? I don't see it worth any more than $45.00 and only to weld it all together as an abstract piece of yard art !!!! -Garry pdq67 Nov 4th, 06, 12:05 PM My nephew know's a guy that has a 45 Hog that is in better shape than that and it has several cracks in it's frame so go figure.. NOT BY MUCH THO...... I wanna say it's a '47 model?? pdq67 onovakind67 Nov 4th, 06, 12:20 PM Good Grief, it's up to $4,500 ???? I don't see it worth any more than $45.00 and only to weld it all together as an abstract piece of yard art !!!! -Garry There's big money in old iron. I worked with George Haas, a chief engineer who ran a vintage motorcycle business on the side. He has a large collection of Indians and Indian memorabilia. It's amazing how much old parts are worth to those who don't have them. Alwhite00 Nov 4th, 06, 3:40 PM There is more left of that bike than this camaro on another post.

I just don't think they needed to clarify that it needed a "complete restoration" ya know (lol) and if i had the money......................................... well, lets just say i'd be off on another adventure in pissin' the wife off :D | ||
