Buried treasure

Who hasn't dreamed of finding a buried treasure at one time in their life?  I know I have!  Most of us think of antique coins or battle field relics when we think of treasure, but how many people would get a thrill from unearthing an old motorcycle.

Here's an old 45 cubic inch Harley
    



This appears to be an old WW2 cycle








Here's an old Indian motorcycle







Another old 1930's Harley

Some treasure can be found without much digging...







I love this old Harley "Panhead" chopper!


 This last motorcycle (shown below) is a late 1930's Harley. It was found and restored by a man and his son who live in Australia. I met the owner online after he bought one of my motorcycles on ebay.  He later sent me me photos showing the before and after condition... 

  ...when found it was in a sorry state to say the least...



It just goes to show you that one man's junk is another man's treasure!

Restored to original condition.
