Fake Green/Black Phantom

[Jeff54]

Yet another fake, fantasy, poor copy on E-pay trying to pass of as real and new; Can't say it doesn't look pretty but why seller is lying? Bogus sale scams suck anyway U look at it.

Green/black paint, Black Phantom decal with the wrong pin strips and darts and a Cruiser logo on tank. Wrong but nice-looking 60/70's grips and wrong seat post clamp too. Pin striper; nice try but has a shaky hand as well.

bike is worth the original asking price. I did not see anything fake or any lies in his minimalist description.

Description says its "vintage" and "unridden" with "zero miles". Serial number puts it at a late 54/early55 model year so it could be all original phantom parts just with a really oddball redo.

On the positive side, I love the antifreeze green color and it would be a cool idea for a custom.

I don't think he is trying to claim it is original since it is obviously a repaint. bike is definitely vintage... I guess people can read into the ad whatever they want.

amazed to see the bids marching in on that thing... jeez!!! shiny sells!

Yeah, it's pretty indeed and surely fun to own too but, it's got some wrong paint, parts and decals. Paint looks like it's still drying too. Yet, like a few others, leaving out facts like this is just a con job. Get better customers when U come clean vs used car salesman tactics. "What the customers don't know won't Hirt them." Is a scam tactic.

it is just a crummy description. I see no evil intent.

Believe it or not these things don’t matter to some people. Hard to imagine someone could enjoy a bike that isn’t as it left the factory!
