Is there someone in the area of this bike that can pick it up for me if I decide to buy??  Possible transport to Mid Ohio, or maybe I can work out a trip south...?

Since there was no phone number I used the link morning of 4/29.  Have not received a response as I was interested as well.  She's a real beauty!

A true trials bike - no seat.
That last picture looks like someone could'nt quite make it up that section 35 years ago, stepped off - and walked away.

Got an E mail form the owner, said he's going to re-advertise, {E bay} at a starting bid of $700. Found out it was worth more than he thought...

Bike is now on E bay, starting bid $300, sell price of $1300. It does have a reserve, but don't know what it is. Be interesting to see if it sells and at what price.

Seller states in Ebay listing "its been cleaned and garage kept since he found it". They're not mentioning it was stuck in a dirt bank for the last 25 years [V]

The seller put up another listing on CL May 27th.  It is listed there for $600. and all the pictures are gone.  Just a brief description remains....My guess is that's the reserve price [?]
