There is a 350 GTR included in this auction.  It is only visible in the background of a photo of a Ducati road racer rolling chassis.  It looks like there is no paint on the tank.  There are many vintage bikes in the auction, if any of you are interested in other brands.

Oops!  I had forgotten about that. When I saw it mentioned on the Wera forum, I thought it should be here.  Guess it already was.
