cdfw Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 (edited) I may be wrong about this but I doubt it!! I got quite exited about an original looking welbike that I had just found posted on Craigslist Belfast (I had just google'd welbike for sale, as I often do on the off chance) http://belfast.craigslist.co.uk/mcd/4156108333.html then it dawned on me that it looked rather familiar and I remembered this one sold on ebay in Aug this year... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1942-MkII-Excelsior-Welbike-british-airborne-forces-WWII-paratroopers-bike-jeep-/221268350615 Buyers beware.. Did anyone enquire about it... Apparently it was found in a Barn that I assume was in Herts, but also in this guys Uncles garage in Belfast two months later... Maybe the Uncle bought it, put it in his Garage to restore but died before he got round to it, from where it was found by his nephew after the funeral to then put on Craig's list.. If by any chance you live in Belfast and your Uncle has just died and who happened to be a WW2 military vehicle enthusiast... I am truly sorry!

honeileen Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 In his advert it says :I know nothing about this bike was found in my uncle's garage: at 2800 quid he knows something!:cool2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdfw Posted December 28, 2013 Author Share Posted December 28, 2013 Well since he was using the pics of a welbike that sold for £6601.00, he knows how to bait a hook! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cdfw Posted May 15, 2014 Author Share Posted May 15, 2014 Whilst doing my usual search for welbike bits, I noticed this. http://www.icenicam.ukfsn.org/eventsh/130721.html VMCC Founders day. 21st JULY2013. Look at the seventh photo down. Is this where the original bike came from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
