Phantom Available . .
Hello,
I'm not a Phantom guy, but I saw this thread and thought I should pass along a Phantom I became aware of in the last week . . . Cheap ! These are some older folks down in Florida, and they are handling the estate of their friend who recently passed away. They sent me a photo of a rough Phantom (wrong seat, funky tank? serial no. K8997) but all there, and asked me what it was worth. I said 400 to 450. Based on my opinion, I think they are about to list it on CL for 425. If someone would like to call them and respectfully ask if they would be willing to email photos, I think they will work with you. Please don't beat them up ! ! ! and offer them AT LEAST 400 . . . they are trying to help the surviving wife. Also, I believe they are willing to drive it down the street and drop it off for packing/shipping at ABC Bicycles (727) 345-5391 (ask for Richie).
As soon as someone has contacted them successfully, please post here, and so indicate . . so these nice folks don't get hounded to death. Contact Bob or his wife Kathy at (727) 896-5478 and tell them that Pete sent you ! ! She has a PP acct. and is very nice.
There ya go Phantom guys ! ! Go get it. If anyone wants to reciprocate with a tip on a prewar Schwinn frames or projects, it would be much appreciated.
Cheers, Pete
