.../forums/images/emoticons/smile.gif a friend in another province has found an old (1932 ) Indian motorcycle that was in showroom condition, but was last started in 1989... The man died a while ago..The widow wants $500 for it.. and then there would be crating,and shipping.. (I cannot imagine that it would start up in less than three days work at their farm) so .. considering it solely as a project bike/forums/images/emoticons/confused.gif... but if I did get it.. I would want it to run, not just sit around and look pretty ... What is it gonna cost me to get it running ??? (tires,battery , carb overhaul , gear box re and re, etc,etc../forums/images/emoticons/shock.gif.) and what is the estimated (auction ) "Kelly's Blue Book" price for such an antique, if its running ???/forums/images/emoticons/emoticonsxtra/baffled.gif SilverDave/forums/images/emoticons/emoticonsxtra/gunhead.gif <--- My wife thinks I am nuts to even be thinking about it
