Barn find (actually a chicken coop)
Found this yesterday, has been sitting since 1978

Pretty cool find. Is that a hole in the top of the left tank?

[Jdiesel25]

Yea, she’s rough but all the numbers are correct and matching etc. Guy parked it in his chicken coop in 78 and it sat there until yesterday.

Wow, nice find! ...and the tires held air!

BEAUTIFUL Good look waking up this "Sleeping Beauty"

[BigLakeBob]

Good for you, great find. Maybe a little front leg repair too!

[ChiefTwoKicks]

Sell that Impala and there should be enough to cover most of a respectable restoration... ya think ?

Looks like early 1946.

Oh my goodness- what a sacrilegious act of defilement. I cannot believe that people still are doing this. People search their whole lives looking for a find like this and somebody butchers it for the almighty $$$$ Jerry

Some people have a lot of class, it just happens to all be low.....

Sad...To say the least

I understand for some its just business,but I would think there is more monetary value leaving it together.

Just to clarify:
I didn’t buy this to make money, I pulled the engine out to have it gone through etc. I realized I don’t have the time, patience or resources to get it where it needs to be. So hopefully someone will do that rather than it sit for another 30 years and tot away.

Did you buy the bike to lose money? You own it, do as you see fit.
