PHENOMINAL!

Now all you need, is a juicy dead grandfather story to go with it. Maybe something like, you walked out to the barn to see how the milking of the cows was going, and how you found Grand Dad slumped over the bucket. When you rolled him over, you found a trap door under his corpse, so you opened it up to see what was down there.
As soon as you flicked your Bic, the dim light illuminated what would be the most beautiful bike you've ever seen. Of course it was all covered in cob webs and dust, so you gave it a good balsting with the hose, and Walla!
This is the bike that Grand Dad had kept hidden from the family all those years.

That story wouldn't really add any value to the bike I'm afraid, its kind of creepy and gross, why was he hiding it?

Because he didn't want junior to scratch it.
Junior is an inquisitive kid. The kind that's been known to stick a paper clip into the light socket, just to see what would happen.
