Interesting, read the very last sentence in the description :shock: :!:

I guess we are a gang and equal to the scrap heap 8)

That makes me want to bid out of spite!

Anyone on this site could take that bike and probably make it look really cool. IMO 8)

I thought I recognized this bike, it's in Richmond VA, so I've seen it before on Craigslist or eBay, anyway I just sent a question to the seller, we shall see if he posts it...

"I'm one of those "rat rod" guys, am I still allowed to bid?"

haha, just signed in and asked the same question

 

[yoothgeye]

His answer came in:

"Well Justin, me not being a rat rod hater I guess I can let ya throw your bet down with the rest of the gear heads ! LOL Thanks, Tim"

I'll have to watch the auction now.

This guy is a little hypocritical. Parting this bike out is a shame. It just needs a new frame.

 

[suparoospeedway]

I thought the "rat rod gang" was another shot at former glory!

 

[outsider13]

If you look at his other ads and put the parts together , THAT must have been one nice Monark he parted out

 

[outskirtscustoms]

It did look nice. Geez just weld in a new bar if it upsets you that much. I'd ride it just like that.

 

[ratina]

Why did he part it out then? It could have been saved easily. Just weld in a new bar. I remember seeing that bike on CL a couple months ago.

And why is it going for over $50??

I thought the same thing.

I think some of the bidders are ill informed and they have looked at the progression of frame photos and then the complete bike photo that is listed last and might think they are getting the whole bike.

 

[clamdigger]

my interpretation : I hope that an ebay bidder will put more money in my pocket than the knowledgeable rat rod builders or scrap dealers would.

That can easily be an elgin twin bar look alike!
