Thought you all might like to know about this...
A one off, absolute beast of a Chopper valued at $120,000 and created by the OCC father and son team before their infamous split, will be on display at Harley City in Brunswick, Melbourne, through October.
This awesome bike was built in 2004 and includes a Nub (www.nubgrafix.com) ‘monster paint job’, a Russ Wernimont gas tank, 131” H&L Engine, Baker 6 Speed left side drive transmission and a 240 inch rear tyre with a six up four out Rolling Thunder frame. To say the bike is powerful is an understatement – it packs 150HP.
The bike was created by Paul Teutel Senior and Paul Junior in response to a brief from Valvoline to create a “big, bold” bike for a nationwide sales promotion in the USA. The bike toured the States, tempting the two-wheeled fraternity to collect tokens for a chance at owning this masterful piece of machinery.
Definately a difference between convincing a corporation to commision one for 130,000 (including full promotion of the brand, and banners around the workshop), and it being worth 130,000.
Meh
lol
Can't stand choppers. Gimme an Exile bobber any day.
gidday racherob , can't win them all , welcome to the forum .
That's always the problem with these custom bikes, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. It's only worth that amount of money if the demand is there. A custom vehicle of any type will never be a good investment. You're much better off putting that money into a rare original, that will rise in value. Goes for anything. Look what good original Ford GT's and Monaros are worth today.
