So I've been watching way too much American Pickers and Barter Kings lately...and it has paid off! Traded/bartered some items that have been sitting in my garage over the past few months and parlayed that in a sweet find on Craigslist! A Ruby Red 1970 CL350 in pristing condition. 19K miles with newly serviced engine/carbs (and paperwork to prove it), new tires and perfect original seat! Score!!!!!

Thanks guys... Only a few more trades until I get that Shelby I always wanted.


...to be continued*


*=hahahaha
 
Looks great! Score!

And yeah, after so many episodes of American Pickers, I can spot a Henderson K motor a mile away now! ;)
 
Always nice to have a bone stock runabout to ride while you wrenching on the project bikes. Nice find.

Yes indeed...that is, if one has the self-control to keep it that way! ;)

So... just out of curiosity, what did you have sitting in your garage that somebody wanted more than that sweet lil bike?

I picked up a cr@pload of school lockers from a construction tear out and had an ad on CL to barter for a cb. This came through and I jumped on it!!!

OMG you are fucking KIDDING me!
We tore out old lockers at work TODAY!
I passed on bringing home MANY sections because I have to quite... Been trying to break the habbit of pack-rat'ing any more shit just because I can't bare to see it thrown away... like I need 20+ locker sections. ::)

Should've kept those. I picked up 23 locker sections and traded for the cl350 as well as sold each section between 200-250 each!!! Crazy!!!
 
Funny that you mention how expensive lockers are. My pops was just looking into snagging some up to organize and store stuff. He thought it was genius cheap way to things organized. He thought wrong on the cheap part.

Great looking bike by the way.
