A. If you crash 3 you still have an ace in the hole?
B. Sounds like they were not the same bike.
C. If the decal dept was low on inventory, maybe every bike produced on certain days was a Gran(d) Sport(s) model. Maybe a Pro or International in there?

$2.10 an hour first job - you must be a kid, having gotten good wages like that.
The Atlantic & Pacific grocery only paid baggers & stockers $1.62/hr in 1966. Got a pay stub to prove it.
