Why not at least copy n paste the header of the ad so we can quickly see what kind of bike it is? Better yet the ad's copy and even a pic so we can see if it's of interest as far as size, condition, etc. (Admittedly pics are not as easy with the new format.)

This way, we've got the record of what it was and what it (may have) sold for, so it's a useful research tool. And esp when there are pics, some of the more expert members here sometimes comment on the bikes, which is great for those of us new to the field.

I have learned a lot, avoided a mistake or two, and gotten two of my five C&V bikes through helpful links here, so I value this particular thread highly!
