eBay and Craigslist finds

Advice needed - am thinking of bidding on this as want to build up a beater - am a bit worried that it is still on min bid - is it one to avoid like the plague? Are the dropouts a problem for conversion?

^ I hope you got it, for that price nothing wrong.
The dropouts are fine for conversion

1940's Lo-Pro (well, ish) http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/OLD-GENTS-BIKE-POSS-OLD-POLICEMANS-MAYBE-1940s-3-SPEED

I have to admit that I am very tempted- does that make me mentally divergent?

Thats so sweet, check out the headtube angle, its like the original beach cruiser

my first roady was a bsa equipe, with that same badge, their strong frames, i had mine as a ss/fw and gave it a thrashing from the day i got it, did me proud.

I'm liking the toptube mounted gear shifter- and yes I know what forum I am in.

I await the pitchforks & cauldron for burning tar.

Cheers rik, sadly I didn't get it as there was a rather high hidden bid on it - may have been a sneaky reserve I think. Oh well, just got meself a lovely vintage CB frame so all's well.

It's mine I tell you, all mine!
I've put in a bid for this, it will be perfect for the ASC.
Please let me win.
And yes, I too, know which forum I'm on.

Damn you Fruitbat!

I want this for myself, could we come to some arrangement before we become locked in a bidding war?

Why oh why did I post this...

I just paid for these at BLB (and, for once, it was a happy bike shop experience)
While I was there they showed me an almost identical set, in pink (yes, PINK).
I jokingly offered them £7, but they'll be listed on the bay soon.
