I like the mini chopper, but hate the paintjob! haha I'm not anti-American, I just can't deal with it, but for the right price I would've scooped it up. The proportions for it's size are perfect!

I love the paint on this. I may already have a buyer at triple my price.
 
Re: Kingfish254's Finds 10/5 Harley+Mixte+HELP ID Old Dash Panel

Nice Yard Saling today for less than $100 total.
Bought this Sears Mixte for the wheelset to go on a different bike. I should be able to sell the new Nirve seat and grips along with the basket for what I paid for the bike

SOLD Seat, grips, basket

I think the dash panel is very early 60's Mercury myself. Something screams FOMOCO to me.

I was getting a Galaxie vibe from it.

Look for a pic of a dash from a 61 mercury comet. Think that's it.

Don't know for sure, but the ovals look like possibly Buick or Olds to me. Post it on the Hamb they'll tell ya I bet.

Thanks, but it's definitely a 61 Merc Comet.

It cleaned up pretty well. It actually is about the right size for the Columbia repop bars that I have on Firewing II, but using it would be to far over the top. Popped it up on the bay instead.
