Of all the things to find for sale on cl??

For those that don't know, Yes Evel was a montanan.

Evel Knievel's original ramps (Butte, Montana)
Evel Knievel’s original ramps

These ramps were used for all of Knievel’s jumps, including the famous leaps at Caesar’s Palace fountain, Wembley Stadium, King’s Island and many others.
The ramps have been in storage in Evel’s home town of Butte, Montana, for the past 25 years, just recently brought out for the annual Evel Knievel Days celebrations in Butte.
The ramps are pictured at the Butte Depot bar, the last place they were set up and on display. The other photo shows the crash landing at Ceasar’s Palace.
Here’s a chance to own a unique piece of history, as these ramps were a big part of some of the greatest daredevil stunts ever

Don't see a for sale ad like that every day. Before the 'Net those would have been chopped up for firewood, I suspect.
