hey gang

i know i said i was going to upload a bunch of photos, but that's not gonna happen.  I wasn't in possession of the bikes long enough to get it done.  i hope you will all be happy to hear that a member of this forum bought the sandcast(and the K2).  hopefully we will all see a new rebuild thread from him soon.  thanks to all the members for the great info.  my sandcast ownership was very brief but i learned a lot about these classics.  thank you all very much!

i know you guys are going to think i'm crazy but they are both going to be sold.  i do realize i'll probably never come across another find like this in my life and im only 36.  i just dont have the garage, tools, experience or money to undertake a project like this.  i hope it doesn't piss anyone off to hear this but if i do well enough on these bikes i'm buying myself a grom!!

Maybe you find some missing parts in that place. What is an "estade sale"?



i didnt find any other parts but i did also buy a complete 72 CB750 (picture attached).

An Estate Sale, also called a Tag Sale in some parts of the country, is a way of liquidating the belongings of a family or estate. These are usually much more than garage or yard sales. They are used when someone is in need of a way to sell items due to downsizing, moving, divorce, bankruptcy, or death.

Would have been nice if you had offered that bike here in the forum.

So what are you looking for, detail info to get the best prize on ebay?

Good luck!

hey sgt!  i mentioned in my original post i am offering the bike here on the forum first.  that is still true!  i dont take possesion of the bike till saturday.  once it's in my hands i'll upload detailed pics for the members to dissect.  anyone in this great group will have a chance to inspect photos and make me an offer well before it makes it to ebay. 

my goal is to: 1)learn exactly what I have. 2)learn how much it's worth. 3)accurately represent it and sell it.

Yup, it looks like you have one.  It's missing a few things just from the pictures:  the seat is from a later model as well as the airbox.  The front fender looks right.  The oil lines from the picture appear correct but it would be better to have closer pictures.  The tank should have wrinkles when you look down the tank cap.  The gauges should be black background with greenish numbers and markings.  Do you have the side covers?

Good Luck

thanks arnold!

i agree the seat doesnt have the duck tail i've seen on others and I didn't think it was correct.  i did not know the airbox was incorrect, thanks for the info.

it's missing the headlight, left side handlebar controls, kick start rubber, and all 4 baffles.  I will check for tank wrinkles and the gauges on saturday when i pick it up.  i will also take a lot of good pictures and upload them.

the right side cover is there but some dummy painted it black,  they also painted the headlight bucket and fork ears.  i cant remember if the left side cover was there.

hey guys,

i believe i just found the needle in the haystack.  i was checking out an estate sale and found an early cb750 with the VIN "CB750-10052xx/CB750E-1005088".  I cant remember the last 2 digits of the frame VIN but the first part is right and ill get to pick up my bike on saturday and will know for sure.  i only have 3 photos right now till I pick up the bike but will attach those for you to check out.  I ride scooters and small cc bikes.  this 750 is too much bike and project for me.  i'm hoping to get the experts in this forum to confirm i do have a sandcast and it's condition.  I want to sell it, and would like to represent it as accurately as possible if it goes to ebay.  i also thought i'd give the members of this forum a shot at it before posting to ebay.  thanks in advance for any info you can share with me.
