GET READY FOR "SUMMER 86"










My ex- wife took a trip to California in 1986 and visited The Shop in Ventura. She took some pictures for me. Check out the prices of the bikes for sale on the white board. That 1960 Duo-Glide looks pretty good (except for the 61-64 tanks) for $4,000. I like the basket case prices too. An indian 4 cyl. for $4000! And this was retail!
Check out the signs hanging from the bikes. A 1951 vertical Indian used in The Wild One.
Here I go again reminiscing (and kicking myself) about the old days and passing up complete Indian chief basket cases for $1,500 or less... sometimes much less.
Get ready for "Summer 2010" scary...
