Good Polish Wanted
« on: June 30, 2006, 10:20 PM »
Hi all

I am looking after some more old rides.

There may also be a T/A a Profile Cruiser (we think we've nailed down where it might be) and a CC.

So, the Haro you may have seen before.

The DB looks like a Viper (from the decals) but it is thought to of been a SS, it also has GT bars.

The Profile has bars, stem, crank, pads, f & f and beartraps.

Loads more pics to follow but for now -







More survivors.

 ;)

That Profile is in need of some serious TLC  :smitten:

Nice find, they just need a good home  :daumenhoch:

They are sweet though aren't they.

They DB and Profile have been left outside round the back of a stable under straw and manure for about 20 years.

The craziest thing is that the profile crank still spins perfectly, the pads are pretty good and that it is all there. The wheels are thought to of been stolen, but they left the rest   :D

Looking forward  to have a good look at them all, strip them down and get my hands on them though.

It's lucky that they survived, they where all booked for scrapping / being thrown years ago. The Haro was given to young lad who left it outside for a couple of years before the original owner saw it again, and the Profile and DB would have been long gone if they where in view, but the straw and horse muck saved them.

They should all come up a treat with a bit of work (the Mrs wasn't too happy when I turend up at nearly 10 ish tonight though with another 3 bikes.)  :tickedoff:

The Profile is ALL Profile (Stem, Bars, Pads, Crank etc) and Hutch Beartraps.

I only picked them all up tonight and have not even looked at them properly. I am off on a yacht all weekend, but hope to get loads more pictures up early next week and a full list / spec.
