Twice a year I play hooky and go to the huge gearhead flea market in Carlisle, PA. This time I snagged pics of lots of bike stuff. Figured I'd share in case anyone would get a kick out of seeing the stuff that was there.

This Roadmaster Wedge was REALLY sweet. No price and the guy was busy with customers so I didn't ask.

Lots of wacky parts on this one.

Beautiful shape, but isn't that a little pricey?

There were plenty of these if mopeds are your kink.

Non-bike-related side note... it kills me that I used to be able to pick up steering wheels like this for 5 bucks. Nobody wanted them, everybody was replacing them with something fancier. Bucket seats are the same way. We used to pick them up for 50 bucks for a nice usable pair. Now it's $300-$400 for a completely roached-out set to use as a base for all new foam and upholstery.

This one was pretty. Reasonably priced at $75.

$650 with mediocre paint, the wrong decals, and the wrong seat and sissy?

This is the Apollo I ended up taking home. Guy would have taken $25 for the blue Skoot next to it.
20190425_095825.jpg


Asking $450

Notice the guard on the lavender Barracuda says Stick Shift. No doubt someone yoinked it off to use on a boy's bike and stuck this grip shift on to sell it.
20190425_101751.jpg


I REALLY liked this one. Asking $300.

This was one row over from the guy with the Apollo and the identical Skoot, only this was cleaned up and they wanted 125 for it.

Man cave decor, anyone?
20190425_111210.jpg


Oddball 20-inchers. Check out the last pic of the guard on the black bike. Star Shot? Star Wars-inspired for sure. Also: B.F. Goodrich Challenger, The Londoner, made-in-Germany President.

More to come... I don't want to overload one post with pics. (Is there a limit?)

I had never seen a Schwinn Town & Country before this. Then I saw another just like this but in better shape a few rows down. (Stay tuned, pic is down there somewhere.)

Funky 24x16. And I really liked the 24" Roadmaster tanker next to it too. Just a little too rusty and roached out for me.

It really hurt not to take this one with me.
20190425_131253.jpg
20190425_131259.jpg

They were asking $2500 for this one. :eek:
20190425_132242.jpg


And this Sears Spyder (? Huffy? Murray? Columbia?) really wanted to come home with me too.

One more round of pics after this...
 
Can't remember what this small frame was... AMF?

Interesting bike right here... Belknap Blue Grass?

20190425_133331.jpg


Fun little Ross, looked like kind of a low-budget Barracuda.
20190425_133355.jpg

I didn't ask.
20190425_133552.jpg

Only at Carlisle. (Actually, wasn't there something like this in a Ford truck commercial recently?)
20190425_133757 (2).jpg


neat little custom.
20190425_135723.jpg


Aaaand here's the other Town & Country as promised above.

20190425_140131.jpg


It looked like someone touched up the guard with a Sharpie.
20190425_140142.jpg


I think they were asking $700. That seems to be the default ask on a Fastback.

20190425_140213.jpg


24 inch. Really tempted me.
20190425_140431.jpg


The South Park kids in the bus windows killed me. :bigsmile::grin::rofl:

Managed to get the bike I rode around and the bike I bought in the trunk of a Buick Century without too much heartache, even with all that emergency coolant in there.
20190425_141921.jpg


And there was lots more that I didn't get pics of. If you are within reasonable driving distance of Harrisburg, PA and you're into rusty old cars or bikes or anything else of that nature, I highly recommend the Spring and Fall shows at Carlisle.
 
amf.jpg
this was my grandfathers bike. I dont know what kind of bike it is but i think it is an amf voyager. I dont know if its from the 60's or the 70's. It rides awesome though.
 
huffy bike.jpg
I also have a huffy customliner. This one is not done yet but getting there. I do have one more bike but have to get it out and take a picture of it and upload it.
