Got a call yesterday from a local guy from that I deal with over on the BMX Museum (jayoldmanbmx) and he says he is looking at this old Columbia with a gas tank and head light and was wondering what it was worth. As he is describing it too me Im thinking its a RX-5 reproduction but he says the guy he is buying from insists its been in his familys barn since the 50s and the guy only wants $100 bux so it must be a repop, right? I took a shoot and told him if he picked it up and its complete and decent Id give him double his money for it....still assumeing its a repop and I'll part it out for some quick cash. Well when I go to pick it up this morning this its whats there- 
I believe its a 1952 5-star Suberb 75th Anniversary Edition and it seems to be pretty much all original and in decent surrvior shape besides for some flakey chrome on the bars and front hoop, even has the key for the springer and front drum brake! Im really digging the light green and have never seen another one in this color scheme. Needless to say this wont be a part out!
