As they say, all you need is two bidders to who want something. I think in 2012 that was worth around $4000. I wonder if it ran?

And , I have to wonder why they left that rusty cover plate on the motor . At least it looks rusty .
Rick ,
Is that the color you painted your latest ?
Pete . :)

Very close. I used an off the shelf Kirker paint. Merlot solid color, single stage urethane. I bought a 1 gallon kit, plenty to paint 2 bikes.

I asked because the Barrett bike looks a lot closer to Maroon , at least on my screen , than your bike .
But , maybe the difference is sunlight and different cameras ???
On my screen , I like your color better , being a bit more earthy .
