Really dig the sleeper. Those Lesters and those pipes! mmmmmmm...
never seen a tank break/rot away on the top like your's had. Why can't people keep them dry???
When I first went to look at the bike I tried to open the gas cap and the top of the tank moved in a way that just wasn't natural. Did the "plunka-plunka" sound like when you push on a beer can! When I went back years later, it had given way and was half full of old rain water, ancient gas and mosquito larvae.
This guy is a major hoarder. Every out building was stacked to the rafters with junk. He had some big block For and Mopar engines and old cars. They were heading towards the same fate. I truly believe that if code enforcement hadn't gotten on him, he would have kept it all until he died and it all returned to the earth.
