Stolen dream bike found 26 years later? Fat Chance (TC)!

Re: Dream Bike Stolen - Found 26 Years Later? Fat Chance (TC)!!!

Thanks LikeClockwork (and you alls), glad you are getting such a kick out of this story. I've been walking around in a daze all week. Productivity? Shot all to hell...

BOTM competition johnnyrocket? Er yeah, maybe. I'm still licking my wounds after coming up short with the Off Road Toad. ;) It's funny but I thought for sure the Toad was my last and best kick at that particular can. Anyone that has entered feels they like their chances, but with such amazing competition there's no such thing as a sure thing! If I do the bike up properly, as planned, I'll give it another shot. I owe the bike that much at least! That, fresh straw, a bag of oats and a good rub down...

I have no better stories to tell than this, that's for sure!

Great story, thanks for taking time to share it with us!

I just cannot wait to see how this will turn out!

How are you planning to deal with color change? Are you going to do it yourself or let somebody else do it?

Thanks Dare! I don't 'dare' to do the paint job myself, but I will personally choose the colours (same as original, or at least as close as I can find). Luckily there are many talented frame painters in my area...
