Went to another Walnecks swap Sunday in Woodstock, Il. I've been to a few swaps over the past few years, and never really found anything. Sunday was different.
Second seller had a bunch of tanks. Had an older sporty tank, spotless inside, has petcock, cap, and still had some gas in it. Crappy flame job, but that would go anyway. Guy says $45, I walk away.. just got here. See another 12 dozen or so sporty tanks, some old, some new, some roached, 1 blue. Almost bought a new one set up for popup cap for $75, but didn't want to spend much, as I'm gonna have to hack it up.
Anyway, get through the whole swap, and want to check back on a couple things, then the first tank before leaving.
Check an area that filled in since we walked past, and the last guy has some XS parts.
In the last 15 minutes there I bought:
Stock XS front fender (clean)
XS fork brace (manufacturer unknown)
Battery for my kids quad (new)
Battery tender (new in package)
Lightly used chest protector for the boy
Sporty gas tank
Grand total $125
Not too bad for a sunday afternoon.
