maybe then neil give a resto a scan over before hand and give an estimate , in writing , to the owner , tell em the most itll be too , up to them then , if they accept  get a deposit off em , do em a deposit receipt with the estimate price on to and get em to sign it , you have a copy and they have one too

Well just keep hold of the bike till he pays up  ;)


How long would you have to keep it for before it legally becomes your property ,  ???


Then Ebay it , or sell on a vintage road bike forum ,,  :daumenhoch:


You'll get your fees back and , anything else you make would be a bonus . :4_17_5:

Only problem being is it's money tied up  :-\

WARDY:
