STRAIGHT 8

[Rat Rod]

This one showed up on the CL last week and kept taunting me. :x

I contacted the seller today and threw out an offer and was pleasantly surprised when they accepted.

Now the Lakester has a buddy... :lol:

That's a sweet bike! 8)

. . . I contacted the seller today and threw out an offer and was pleasantly surprised when they accepted.

Did your offer include anything like the seller getting to put his family portrait on the site as a banner ad?! :mrgreen:
Nice find, by the way . . . Sir!

 

[Rat Rod]

Ha Ha...well, I was helping his family out in a way. He was selling it to get money for a business they are getting ready to start.

You need a Rockabilly Boogie now. A real one, not the newer white one. :wink: No, I'm not selling mine.

8) Well now you have one to ride on days other than July 4 and March 2. :lol:

 

[CCR]

Yeah Steve, pull a rockabilly boogie out of Texas for your next trick :lol:

Seriously though, nice score. I think you've had your hands on just about all the cool bikes out there!

 

[SCHWINNRAY69]

Nice!

8) Well now you have one to ride on days other than July 4 and March 2. :lol:

March 2? You mean Rat Rod celebrates National Banana Cream Pie Day too!? I thought I was all alone!

 

[Sphinx]

Man, I can hardly wait for March, now that I know about that.

I'd like a Rockabilly Boogie and a Boney Finger

It was in the 70s the past two days and today it was in the 40s/50s.

That's winter for us Texans. I guess I jinxed the weather by buying this one.

 

[kingfish254]

Sweet!!!!! You should have bought one of those Electra Nexus 8 wheels to make it a true Straight 8.

 

[Rat Rod]

I don't do all that fancy wheel building so it would have been expensive.

If would be cool though

[LukeTheJoker]

Luke.

 

[Redd]

Love that back rim, I might have to paint a set for one of my rats. 8)

 

[iven]

Quick! Slap on a Tripple Tree on that thing! xD

 

[CRASH]

That was my son's #2 choice under the MP, but I got him an MP.

Great find! Love that bike! And KF's suggestion about an 8-speed with 8Ball stick shift would be very very cool!

 

[eparsons]

I saw that one on the CL.
