[wayne]

is it ok ?

cost went from $6500.00 to $8800.00 just a little bump? :smile:

The one thing I don't like about that fellow is how he fires prices off to people of 'what it will be worth' when he's done with a restoration. That just bothers me for some reason? But I have to remind myself it's a fictional TV show.

That Matchless was beautiful, though.

Bad choice for the tires, tho. It had Dunlop Trials Universals which were a street/dirt tire and he went to what looks like chinese dirt tires. I agree Randy his finished values are BS. If you watch Pawn Stars you'll see the Lil Indian and the Rokon he restored still there. He valued them at 7200 for the L I and like 6000 for Rokon. It's a fun show to watch but definitely fictional.:shrug:

Don't know about anyone else but when he said he had never seen a Matchless before I would of been a little hesitant to authorize him to tear it apart
