Came across a bike junkyard today. Pretty sorry affair for the owner. Claims he has 3000 bikes. Parts all over the place. Bikes have been sitting outside year round, many in storage sheds and 1/2 dozen trailers. I looked though a window in one building with those appearing to be in better condition, organized - lined up or hanging. Wasn't permitted inside to look any further. Mix of everything, usual scrap to interesting. Nothing mint or choice.
Anyhow, there is an original british Lambert Grand Prix, guessing 1972 / 73. Oddball but surely a conversation piece for fun rides. Complete with all the original and rare components. Looks like this stock picture, same color (70's purple) and a smaller frame. They're sort of fussy and only for the collector. I don't think anyone would want one as a daily ride. This one still has the aluminum 'death' fork! The fork is worth keeping but highly suggest a swap out if really planning to use the bike. Has the weird center handlebar sleeve, gold anodized aluminum. Guessing it weighs 20 to 22 lbs. If anyone is interested, seller wants $150. (Would have to figure $100 for shipping too.) If the frame was larger, I would take it but willing to assist any here if interested. I could go back, get pics, serial number etc. It needs a complete and major going thru and the paint is scratched, worn, etc.
