    Hey I'm pushing 70 in years but apparently not mentally. It was only $20. Who could have passed it up?

    Im more jealous of the back of your truck. :) I remember going into a Brahma truck cap dealer as a kid with my dad and seeing the displays of those bench seats that go in your cab.

    Oh I guess I'll get it running, ride it around the block a few times and end up selling it at a swap like I did the last one.

    Nothing wrong with that.
    You'll have the fun of building it and making a few bucks....someone else gets to enjoy something that otherwise would have just been hoarded in a garage somewhere.
    Good deal for all involved...even the bike!!! LOL

    Looks like a good buy to me. I almost bought one for $20 with no motor this morning at our local swap. looks like you did better. Just as I was about to reach for my wallet I remembered I hadn't done anything with the one I bought last fall................so it got left for the next dreamer.

    I bought an old minibike for $20 once. Fix it up and sold it for $150. It was a no-name. No one could identify it. Yours could go for more. Check out this forum:

    Try the "what is it" forum. No way I would have passed that one up even for fitty bux.

    Answer to your question - Not a damn thing! I'd have been all over that one, too.

    You, sir, are totally normal. You would have really messed up your karma if you would have passed on that for $20. In seven years I hope to be just like you!

    I knew I was on the right web site. I wouldn't be normal any place else.
