What's The Biggest Rust Bucket You've Bought And Brought Home?

[HARPO]

Just curious as to how bad some of us will go to bring a bike home to work on.

If you wish, please include what you paid for it.

There were 2 bikes that I wanted (not pictured).. they said I can have those 2 for free if I take them all.. Deal if you guys carry them all..

Funny… I was just about to do this

Umm....well, I have brought home more rust buckets than I care to remember but my 52 Cycle Truck has to take the cake. Even though most have seen it by now, here is a taste.
The rear of the frame was so rusty I basically pulled off most of it with my bare hands. Last pic is fixed. Still in the works just slow right now.

If there is an award or trophy for this thread I think I know who's getting it.

I don’t think I’ll ever save them though it would make for neat before and after pics… free out of a ditch… still about 3 that I haven’t dug up.

Hold my beer.....

So here is my pigeon poop imperial. Barn find covered in.... well....
And yes, its a rider and actually rides really great. Not a squeak, not a rattle. Found it right here on the cabe about 7ish years ago I'm memory serves me right.
