Amate of mine used own and ride a hutch trick star...he bought the frame new .....a small group of us used to ride in the small town. All these years later, a friend that rode with us, was at the dump, looked at the metal pile and said" that's toni paynes hutch" . He was right. Toni had cracked the frame, so his dad fixed it by welding in 2 vertical posts from the chain stays to the seat post stays. VERY distictive! He put in his shed and forgot about it for 2 years until someone mentioned that i was building up old bikes , and hey presto, i picked it up today. Hmmm bit rough  Roll Eyes (cough), but i will be looking for a repairer for this one......

Cool! It's good to find a childhood memory even if it wasn't yours. Either way it will turn out good.

That is a great tale,  I'm sure the frame will fix up nicely.

Thanks guys!! It's amazing that more than 20 years later...someone has thrown this to the dump....and the only rider out of the original 5 of us...who still lives in our home town, just happened to be at the dump, and saw this frame before the dump bloke pushed up the metal pile with a backhoe! He pushes up once a day. So the window of time in which he found it was a long shot by the very least.  I scored a patterson 3 weeks ago....similar story but i'll do another write up on the forum for that one.  Grin

Mate, ask the dump guy to put all bikes aside for you to look at before he dozes em and if you grab one give him a 6 pack Smiley
