K0- Whooo Hooo- Has to be worth a pretty good price restored down there.
Thanks Eric, and yes, while it does look like it was dragged out of a drain, it's a low number 1969 diecast K0, so pretty rare on this side of the pond. Luckily for me, I've got pretty much all the hard to find parts already hanging in my garage too, except of course for a nice set of HM300's. I won't be selling it though, as you know I've been looking for a frame for my other K0 engine for years, so unless I suddenly go broke, this one's a keeper..........
So that title and KO frame neck I sold you many moons ago is still hanging in your rafters or made its way to the scrap pile ? Shipping was kind of expensive for you on that even back then, sure its a lot more now.
That bike still have a wrinkle tank ? Any other good bits still left ?
Ha ha, they're still hanging in the rafters Eric, I might have to turn them into some sort of "Garage Art". The early die casts did have wrinkle tanks, I had one but sold it, but I might be able to buy it back as the guy who bought it doesn't have a K0.
I do have a nice "original paint" red K0 tank here though, so no biggie if I don't get a wrinkle tank. I've gotta get the bike down from Dale's place in Hervey Bay in Queensland, over 1000 miles from home, so I can't even gaze on it's ghastly beauty for a little while yet. Cheers, Terry.
