Had a chance at a 67 cl77 yesterday, and really dropped the ball. Saw the ad friday night for a complete cl77 w/a locked motor for $350, called, arranged a look at it sat. morning, got out there, and sure enough, it was complete except for the chainguard and tank emblems, pretty good exhaust, blown out seat, rust everywhere, it had been in a field for 20 years. For some reason, I did not realize how cool and rare these bikes are, and thought it too big of a project. I let it go and did not even make an offer. Last night, I realized how dumb that was after I figured out how much these were worth and how much I'd like to have one. Called the guy back today, and he said that right after I left, someone offered to pay $50 over what he was asking sight unseen. I told him that if the guy does not show up monday, I'll take the bike for $400. Lord have mercy on my soul for not snapping this up.
