Title: Happy as a pig in the proverbial - NOW WITH PIX!!!
Post by: jimwise68 on March 18, 2008, 12:36 PM

Just had my 80s looptail ripper delivered to my office.

Happy?

Hell yeah!

Finally got one and can't wait to build it up. It is a "barn find" but in great condition due to the fact that it has had dropout protection its whole life. Comes with some choice parts too. So watch this space for April's bike of the month.

in the voice of Quagmire. Alllriiiggghhtt
