looking for something unusual and expensive? ... vintage feel to it, but seems like quite a stretched riding position.
Wooden bicycle
[h=2]Wooden bicycle - $700 (Wakefield)[/h]
Handmade wooden bicycle. Plywood over hard pink foam. Laminated half inch solid stock inside ply from about 6" behind both the head set and the one piece bottom bracket forward to beef it up at those places. Chrome seat pan and leather seat pad and saddle bags that I made too. Racing bars and front caliper brake and coaster brake on rear. Pro auto body paint job in sea foam green. New white 24" HALO thin rail tires and new rims. Leather trim. It still a work in progress and could use a little tweaking. I don't really have the time to do that. So, its not being ridden. I designed and built this myself and imho, I think its pretty cool. A couple of nicks from when I was working on it. I didn't always have a second pair of hands when I could have used them. It a bit bulky and its not built for speed but rides like a Caddy. Call with any questions. Thanks for looking.

Don't know anything about Ross's model line, or if the price ($350) is decent, but this looks to be a fairly nice looking bike. It's got Shimano 600 Arabesque bits. Not my favorite color, but it's not like you can special order a new one from the factory.

[QUOTE=Rocket-Sauce;16737337]This just makes me sad....
Quite the opposite - every bike should be used up. What's the point of just looking at them?

No, not for many years now. But NOS tube sets are still available from e.g. Bicycle Classics.

Not my grail year, as I'd want all the bottle cage braze ons and low rider mounts, but it's a damn fine specimen! I'm at the limits of my garage space for now anyways.

Gitane mixte, $65. Check bike inside out - I bought couple of bikes from this guy - his idea of refurbish is to dump bike into WD-40 bath and go over with rug after. But he has some cool frames sometimes at OK prices

'87 Circuit in PDX for $100. The last thing I need right now is a project, but this bike deserves new life. Someone get on it! 
[h=2]Vintage Schwinn Circuit 57 - $100 (Montavilla)[/h]
condition: good size / dimensions: 57
Black steal frame. Top tube 56 c to c Seat tube 57 c to c.
Wheels are mismatched and tires are throw aways. Clearance is pretty tight with 700x25 tires and the custom fender job. Everything works, newer Ritchey handlebars and threadless quill stem adaptor.
