      Shoot, I'd be doing a swan dive into that dumpster ! not long ago a clean out dude came to the shop and ask if I was interested in some old photo's, turned out to be 2 full albums of pre war flat track photos , I gave him more than he was asking, not really worth a whole lot but priceless history to me..

        A friend got a complete KJ Henderson in parts with an extra engine in pieces from a dumpster at a house that was being cleaned out. Another dumpster had already been filled and taken away before he got there.

          ok so I did it. And no I didn't get hurt or arrested. I didn't find much though. Found what looked like the skeleton of a raccoon! They said the first load had some good stuff.

              Yes, you would have regretted not giving it a try!

                Of course, Jim!

                Skulls are cool.

                But the only time I appreciated them on a motorcycle was in the mid-Seventies when a buddy's chop had the horn-mount area of the wishbone molded in with the fore part of a dog's skull and the teeth quite artfully exposed.

                Had to be there.

                  Does anyone know anything about this event?[ATTACH=CONFIG]21841[/ATTACH]
                  I think I met some old man several years ago who used to race this kind of event. I think he had a 1929 45 that he raced. Anyone know him? Lived near Indianapolis.

                  Maybe the guy upstairs is telling you.....Build it and they will come......

                        It didn't have that much 'character', FNG1!

                        I'd prefer to ride that one these days...

                        And Mike85!

                        Two years or more after I found a pair of 1966 Peoria TT tickets in a dumpster, I found '67, '70, and '71 tickets in the same dumpster.
