Well somebody stepped up and bought the rear drum offa eBay. However the tank has allready been lowered. I don't know about 2k. And this Sunday's show and tell showed peoples bike loot like they all had secret picks. Too tuff for my pocket book. I like Dave K wiring / horn assortment. When I saw that I said jeez- you catch heck getting the tank then you gotta fill it!

$2k...isn't so bad-there are a whole bunch of them out there for sale! there is another out there for $4k -but it has glass reflectors! digging deep in your pocket for the coolest item on the bike 'hurts' sometimes-but look what you have-something really cool!

"cool" is getting too expensive.

Looking good. Was that the one from eBay? The bottom of it looks familiar.

I like it-someone who gets right on it! preserving history-that is cool !

 

[buickmike]

That's only one I could afford. Tho there has been a slew of em for sale all 1400 + up. At least this is straight - thin in spots. Yet straight

 

[mr.cycleplane]

you're right-its getting ridiculous. but there are more collectors than ever and there is only so much stuff that didn't make the scrap drives of ww2! I've had tanks in worse shape than yours and with an un-thinkable amount of money and effort-made them look great-as nice as you're doing here-nice work-gonna be a nice tank when done.
