Rat Rod
Owner & Founder
I had posted the auction for my Supergoose on the RRB FB page a couple of weeks ago and down in the comments someone posted a photo of their childhood BMX bike that they still had. I sent him a message telling him how nice it was and asking him to let me know if he ever decided to sell it. As luck would have it, he was interested in selling it along with another BMX he had due to an upcoming move to Colorado. We did some negotiating and agreed on a price and the bikes arrived this week.
The seller grew up on a farm in Nebraska and he worked and saved money to buy both of these bikes. The Rampar is a 1977 model with first gen ARAYA 7B's. He also still had much of the original paperwork for both bikes. One receipt was for the Rampar upgrades including Oakley grips, Tuff Neck stem and Redline bars.
In 79 he bought the Torker and it was is pride and joy. He only raced it 3-4 times at the local track and a bit around the neighborhood and eventually lost interest. The bikes stayed in his folks basement for the next 30 years and then eventually were moved to his.
The condition of this Torker is unreal...I'm not even going to wash it.
