Yes I believe your right, lol. The cab is in very good condition. I will post some more pics of it this evening, my phone downloads always flip over for some odd reason.

Re: Abra cadabra !!!

Wow that's a great deal.
The truck looks too be in pretty good shape.
If I didn't already have a 8' step bed here I would ask you too bring it with.

I had a 83 IT for a short time it was a good bike. traded it for a clean 500xl that was in way better shape but certainly didn't handle/ride as nice as the IT.

Re: Abra cadabra !!!

It was a good riding bike for its day. This one needed a topend rebuild and some small work but the guy is opening a museum in Mt. Airy NC and is going to have it in there. I gave him some cash to boot but I still ended up with a sweet deal on a very good cab and I also needed the front bumper. Thinking about just clearing that the way it is

Bike museums seem too be a popular thing lately.
I never knew about the vintage mini bike craze till i researched my mini.
Every time we get it out somebody gotta stop and talk/ask about it. It's worse than being in a old truck.

But I've been noticing a lot of vintage bikes getting swiped up quick.

Surely was a sweet deal. You would never catch my wife chasing deals with me that's why I have boys.
She is the one rolling her eyes when we get back with our catch.

Re: Abra cadabra !!!

LOL, we drove 8 hrs Tuesday to look at 2 different trucks for a cab donor. We ended up with this one that is only an hour from the house. If you check out my build thread she is sandblasting the frame for me
