I've been obsessing over this auction all week. The auctioner estimates the value of all goods to be $150K. I've worked out a bidding estimate below that value, but I'm pretty sure someone is going to walk in a bid it right up to the estimated value and beyond. If anyone is interested in the possibility of pooling resources for a bid attempt PM me.

Also, an interesting side note is that my friend thinks Frank went to jail for odometer fixing in the past. He sent me an article with Frank's name in it, but I'm not too sure it's the same guy.

Well Ray you could wire me a couple hundred grand, and I'd be happy to act as your purchasing agent...you might have to come pick up your bikes in Buenos Aires though

I'd love to know what that pristine '68 T120 went for.

A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort. Herm Albright (1876 - 1944)
