I'd like to be the first to call you a dick for not waiting until Monday to post the thread.

Good luck! I hope you find something that will bring you happiness, like a Shovel with the grips packed full.

I'd bob and hard tail that LTD in a heartbeat, and a water buffalo would be a dream find.

Sorry Mark, but if I come across an FXR I'm keeping it. I think the odds of that are going to be slim to none he rode in the 60's and 70's based on what she has said.

Oh man maybe a brit gathering dust in there but that far back there's a a fair shot at some old harley iron laying around. Keep the eyes open and dig deep once you get the barn doors opened gotta be some treasure in there somewhere.
