Panther

I was have a clean out and found this old photo of my first bike. It was a 250cc Panther and the pic shows a part customised machine (the seat was in its embryonic stage). I think it must have been around 1962.

Re: Panther

May not have been the best bike of its year, but hey, Panther is a great name to have on a bike. Heck, I once considered getting a Honda Pantheon scooter just for the name!

Re: Panther

I can't even remember where it went to. I also had a 350 barrel, piston and head to convert it, but never got round to it. As to what it would be worth, I don't know, but I have never seen one in the classic bike mags. Wish I still had my BSA ZB32, Matchless G80S, and Norton Dominator 77.
