Here's your chance to own a nice unrestored  original and almost impossible to find Hindall B44. Harry Hindall was arguably the best motocross  frame maker to come out of the USA in the '65-75 era. Anybody who's seen my Ducati Hindall will appreciate just how sweet these frames are. The welding is way better than anything the Rickman Brothers or Eric Cheney ever did. This bike sold for $1000 on the Swap Meet way back when Jeff Spencer ran it around 2000. I almost ended up with it but was just beaten out by the mad Japanese guy that owns the Garage Company in LA. He offered it to me about 3 years ago for 5k so I'd imagine 5k is the reserve. I've got two of these and would be bidding on this one too if I wasn't slowing down on buying stuff and building them instead.

Obviously a south Cal bike - the 'air box' ain't set up for mud ::).

Bugger, the Hindall's gone. A mate was going to bid on it but it looks like somebody beat him to it.
