Hey Dave! I didn't sense any bad vibes from Chris's post either. Mike told me when they picked up the bike it had the engine serial number all covered with grease and it was a surprise to see a 36 number! I never bothered to think about the frame as I was just admiring the bit of "Americana" as was just mentioned here. Kudos to Chris for noticing that so quickly. But wait until you hear this, the best part..... Inside on the same property was one of the ultimate Crockers! none other than Sam Parriott's twin still titled to Al Crocker himself!!! arrggg! holy grail for sure. How does MR. Martinico do it? If I found that it they could never pry it from my cold dead hands . Mike Terry has a very cool knuck there for sure. my only criticism is that butt ugly welded front skirt, period or not it would go back to the metal pile were it mine, but it ain't!

'cisco' terry's bike was great, won the highly looked for " wire brush" award on saturday, only handed out once a year at oley, not everyone has that great of luck
chris - where was your bike / bikes this weekend. maybe in the future you could stay out of conversations were you put down someones bike, their work or them in general. I probably say this for many others as well.
aka HAWG
In what way was I putting anything down? I was simply stating the obvious.Be sure to visit;

Actually the only pieces 36 were the cases and the toolbox.
