web page on eBay

Not my bike, thought someone here might like to see it. He has no feedback which could mean a lot of things. Bidder beware.

Very cool, ends 1-27.

(Sorry if I put this in the wrong place mods.) :

I put it on my watchlist. If it stays that low I just might buy it.

If my Jeep hadn't just died and I had to spend a bunch of money on a new Trailblazer I would be tempted to buy it too.

If I hadn't just pissed off the wife with my $500 ticket.......

That sure would look good in my living room.

That Coventry single exhaust is going to be hard to find for the buyer.

Trust me that bid will shoot up. If you've followed many of these type sales you'll see the early bidders are just fishing.

46 minutes left and still same price, I'm gonna be really bummed if it goes for like $2,000 or less. That would have been in my price range before the new Blazer.

Btw, if one you wind up with it, I will expect a finders fee of a photo of you on it posted to bonnevilleamerica.com

$1,225 final price

My wife has no idea how close I came to bidding.

I hope it's legit for the buyer.

Wowzer! I'm surprised at that price. How come everything I usually bid on goes for some stupid price

I expected that to hit $5,000 at the very least being on Ebay.

I could kick myself. I forgot all about it and it sold for $1225 or something like that.

Dammit.

Dang, that's a nice piece of house art. I'm finishing my basement right now and that would have been an awesome addition.
