CL ad 25+ bikes (pic heavy)
I responded to a local cl ad for a lot of 25+ bikes. I live in a rural area, so I was surprised to see an ad so close to me. Here is the ad:
" I am selling my 20 year collection of some fabulous bkes. At 80 years old I need the money more than the bikes! Bring cash & large trailer or truck. $575.00 for ALL! Men's -- Schwinn Traveler-X-tra Lite Schwinn Varsity 5-spd with baskets Diamond Back CRMO Mtn. 18 spd Westpoint -no spd Sportcrest - no spd Motobecane C. Itoh w/ child seat National Coast to Coast 12 spd Specialized Sequoia - Spd Nishiki - spd Rollfast Ladies -- Hiawatha - no spd Schwinn - 3 spd Schwinn - 3 spd Penney's - no spd Columbia - 3 spd CCM Grand Sports - no spd Schwinn Sprint - spd Schwinn Collegiate Sport - 5 spd Schwinn Penney's Flight King - no spd Child -- Small girl's Carts -- Gerry Zoomer In Step Duo Sport" The Sequoia really got my attention, so I decided to check them out. Interesting fellow, and the Sequoia among a few others were quite nice, so I offered him $500. He accepted and I'm very lucky to have an understanding wife and a large basement. There ended up to be 30 bikes. I had a scrapper pick up seven of them - they were dept. store rusted junk. I dealt 8 of the lower end bikes and the Instep cart to a resale shop for $100 to recuperate some of the cost, and the rest I'm going to keep and flip this summer. Here are the keepers: 1987? Specialized Sequoia - Suntour Cyclone, came with a park ccp-1, and park 14/15/16 wrench and other tools in the cannondale trunk, blackburn rear rack http://i598.photobucket.com/albums/t...t/DSC02932.jpg Schwinn Traveler w/ new tires http://i598.photobucket.com/albums/t...t/DSC02938.jpg Nishiki Custom Sport http://i598.photobucket.com/albums/t...t/DSC02934.jpg Motobecane Grand Sprint http://i598.photobucket.com/albums/t...t/DSC02936.jpg Diamondback DB Accent MTB http://i598.photobucket.com/albums/t...t/DSC02940.jpg Schwinn World Tourist http://i598.photobucket.com/albums/t...t/DSC02943.jpg '85 Schwinn Sprint http://i598.photobucket.com/albums/t...t/DSC02945.jpg Schwinn Collegiate http://i598.photobucket.com/albums/t...t/DSC02949.jpg Sportcrest Singlespeed http://i598.photobucket.com/albums/t...t/DSC02946.jpg Schwinn Varsity http://i598.photobucket.com/albums/t...t/DSC02944.jpg cont... |
