HARPO
Cruisin' on my Bluebird
I picked this one up pretty local...15 minutes from my house last night.
I went to actually look at a few other bikes the guy had advertised, but when I got there I wasn't really interested in any of them. Kept telling myself to wait and see what else he had. Well, hidden behind a tall sleigh and a box I saw this peeking out. He told me it was for sale, that someone else had seen it but didn't want to pay the $275 he was asking for it because "it wasn't worth it". He told the guy that he had years ago paid $225 for it, and he could have it for that. Still "it wasn't worth it" came out of the guys mouth. So, when he offered it to me for $225, I had to say yes, of course...
And the Serial number...M16133.. dates it to August of 1954.
Anyway, enjoy the photos I took early this morning. I'm just wondering how bad the rot will be on the headlight, and who knows what condition the horn is in.
