Hello All
After much thought and consideration I have decided my time as the owner of record, webmaster and Admin of the SOOC Web site has run it's course. There are a number of reasons for this, a few of which are: I no longer own a sandcast, participation/interest in the site has dwindled to a very dedicated few, with age my skills at web site building are not where they need to be and life priorities are changing.

Having said that, if anyone would like you give me a sandcast that would probably renew my enthusiasm and interest.  Just kidding! 

On a serious note I'm offering to pass the baton to whomever would be willing to take the site over. I think the long standing members need to give the stamp of approval to any parties interested.

The current hosting and domain fees with StartLogic are paid up until 12/06/2019. If nobody takes over, I will not be renewing the services.


If you have basic html skills the continuation of adding to the site requires nothing more than time. I have many pages updated but not yet published. The files can be zipped and easily emailed. The board itself is fairly basic and only requires administrative privileges to make changes to it.

If you are interested in this venture please contact me at sandcast750@gmail.com and we'll discuss the details on how to transition the site over.

Thanks for your years of service.  I've always enjoyed this site and hope someone with the required skills can take over. 

How much does an original double cut fender go for these days?  I remember buying one about 5 years ago for about $250

Reserve not met??? I think the seller is expecting too much this mid production sandcast. 

Looking for a 1969 1970 CB750 K0.  Running or not is OK. Project is fine too but no restored bikes please.  PM me with any leads.  Thanks so much.

Heavily modified and molded frame.  Not worth anything close to 5k.  Maybe $1000 for a 70's survivor chopper with patina.  

i'm not aware of repro smooth lines being made by anyone.  at least yet.  they ARE rare perishable parts, not seen in pairs on vins much past the 300 range.

"88 Distinctions" denotes last smooth lines seen on #E338. 

one smooth and one webbed began being seen in the pre-300 vin range. 

does your #256 have it's original lines ?  if so, were they both smooth ?

For some strange reason #256 has home made oil lines with regular automotive hose clamps.  I was told of a local hose and rubber company that can make almost anything but I would need an original set for them to work from.  That's next to impossible.  I think I"ll have to go with later lines and be content with it.

Interesting.  Wonder how it ended up in Sweeden.  Import or original export.

wow!  is this in Ontario?
