6-30-18 Update: The last time I featured this bike, I didn’t mind there wasn’t as an asking price but I was very curious. Now I know, as it’s available on that auction site with an unmet opening bid of $100,000 or a BIN of $300,000. Let’s see what the market thinks it’s worth. Find it here on eBay. In the …
1 of 150 – 2001 Panzer/Paughco Captain America
