Colson Rear Steer Tandem

[aka_locojoe]

I wonder if these have a particular name. The name we use (rear steer or steer from rear) is misleading.

Here's me riding one of Larry's other rear steers from the rear while I video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ha5CnQgoGX8

And here's Larry and his wife on the Colson which is rare to see two people on it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w3-dGSDfP6A

I have one of these that I bought several years ago with the intention of restoring....i just don't have the time to do it and am not sure i ever will. I am reluctantly putting it up for sale.

It is nearly complete. Missing only chainguards, kickstand, and headbadge. Currently wearing rattlecan black paint that is in bad shape but i believe the bike was originally red. There is no apparent rust or dents or bends. I'd like to see it go to a good home.

Let me know if there is any interest. I can post pictures.

Bike is located in Overland Park.

Thanks.

Chuck
