Yikes did that auction run its course? I would think it to be worth significantly more than that... I sold one in the same size last year for about 50% more and felt the guy got a great deal.

If I wasn't in sell-off mode I would have gone for it. Its my size.
Yeah it ran the full course...started at 400 and had 1 bidder who got it for that...the buy it now price was 550 and nobody bit on that.
I'm just hoping someone here got it (so I can see it cleaned up). Just didn't wanna post it while the auction was running and ruin someone's under-the-radar good deal.

I just found a '76 VN with smoked chrome on an out of town CL, for the same amount shipped. I was lucky, the owner was more than willing to get it packed and ready for Fed Ex. I knew they were beautiful but I wasn't ready for how gorgeous it looked in person.

I've had enough of mine outed here that I don't do it until they end. Although I got my '39 Dawes when someone posted the auction here.

Looks like someone got a good deal, not a great deal but it could have gone much higher

So much of the appeal of these is in the finish. I expect the rust pitting kept some would-be bidders away. I hope it cleans up well for the new owner.

I got hooked on flipping when I bought one of these at a thrift store for $14.95. If I only knew then what I know now.....I sold it off since it was a bit small for me but would have fit my son perfectly now that's he mostly grown up.
