Note that the bike Shiney sold wasn't exactly a non runner. He knows how to get a bike ready for the road.
If you're willing to put in the time to get it running smoothly I think you could get it $4k in toronto.
You could get $2-2.5k with it not running if you were willing to wait for the right buyer and spend time making it pretty, taking good photos and writing good copy.
If you were selling it for less I might consider buying it myself. I'm in Waterloo.
I would also probably fix it and sell it. I'm just not into choppers.
If I were close enough to you to buy that bike I would. Admittedly,I'd try and buy it at a price where I could flip it and turn a profit. That might sound horrible,but it's true.
That is not a home made,back yard frame! Frames like that haven't been manufactured since the 70's. They are only getting rarer and more desirable as time goes by.
For price reference, I recently sold this bike for $3,800 USD. --->
LINKIt was mechanically sound and 100% road-ready,but you get the idea compared to what you have. And I had three guys waiting in line to buy it. It came down to who got the money there first. Like I said,I would love to buy your bike if I were closer! Just for that reason:there are two guys I know of willing to drop $4k on a bike like this.
