          Did you get the other one??!!
          That one is an 80 and doesn’t look as nice, oh yeah and it fell off a truck. Lol
          That 79 was an original and being sold by the original owner. I think I’d pay a little more for a 79 special or a 78 standard in minty shape.

            No, I didn't buy the other one. I have decent SF already.

            Thought that SG might be interesting, but.......nevermind

              Yeah, it was. I’m always looking. I like to stay in the 50-500 area, unless it’s a jewel.

                Ehh. No fan of anything but "E's" or "SF/F's". I passed on a perfect "E" that was in Saginaw. It was just too mundane. I regret passing on it, but I love my bike.
