i have 3 basketcases, and 2 complete right now. i'm just about to
finish the one i bought from charlie in the fall (well it wasn't a
basketcase when i got it, but it was 3 hours later...)- next up i have 2
ducati singles i'm gonna do (hopefully have one done by midohio- kinda
excited to try something totallly different). then back to the
loopframes. on another note i am looking for a rear loop fender in
original white paint with red pinstripes....condition unimportant, as
long as it's not a repaint....

My buddy Dan picked it up a year or so ago for $150 and intended on one day reassembling it into a complete bike. No time, no room for two bikes in an 8x10 shed and a recent marriage helped him decide it needed to go. Pretty rough condition having been wrecked at some point and then stored in a leaky shed, but well worth the $75 I paid. Missing a few items that I already have, but a few more that I don't. Dan kept the u-joint and rear fender, other things such as the forks, front fender and gas tank were damaged in the crash then discarded years ago. Should probably just use it for parts, but can't resist the urge to put it back together instead.
