that professor on gilligans island is talented :mrgreen:

Asking and getting are two completely different things. I can ask $1,000,000 for my VW but I doubt anyone would take me up on it.

 

[outskirtscustoms]

Yeah, but your VW isn't covered in bamboo.

I know it's covered in primer...lol. And the dash was covered in Burlap when I got it. :lol: Yeah that car lived a hard life. It will be re-born soon enough.

Hideous, and his write up screams "I'm a liar!"

I think somebody made a few of these. Here's one for sale in San Diego.

Well, it is pretty creative, and I can't begrudge people for trying to make a buck, as long as there's no fraud.
I would expect something like that to get a better reception here, at least it earned laughter points. I guess it's the high price that offends. :?

Would I buy it?? Heck no! but, I would ride it if I were stranded on that island. Maybe take a 3 hour tour of the place... 8)

WOW! It looks like a 26" wheel will fit the rear triangle of an OCC frame.....hmmmmm....... :mrgreen:

 

[Toeslider]

Did they use a bamboo camera to take the pictures?

 

[yoothgeye]

Only 13 hours left and no bids yet! Oh man, maybe he *should* have sold it to those tv and film prop managers. Maybe Pee Wee Herman will scoop it up in the last minutes. :|

I'm sorry, but I'd imagine a prop manager could put one of those together for about $10.

The Professor would need bamboo AND a coconut to make a camera.

Drum brakes and a bamboo v-twin !? I'm there! No, really though, I think that's cool, the one in the CL ad looked like an inline four. $2000, I'd rather build one myself. Imagine the results some of the guys here would come up with using bamboo.

Yeah, there have been a few really cool designs already done, Maybe we should have a Bamboo build off! Wish it wasn't so hard to find around Indiana. I love this first one.
