    Vintage Hiawatha Arrow Bicycle

    Hey everyone, I haven't posted on this site in years, but I'm resurrecting this ancient thread to say I now own this bike. Found the thread doing some research on my bike yesterday. Can't believe it was 2016 when I got it, I didn't think it was that long ago. I paid $400 for it off Craigslist...

    Update on Paypal and Taxes- 1099s

    I don't understand any of what you just said. If I sell on ebay, does that mean the IRS is going to send me something saying I need to pay in and claim my Ebay sales as taxable income?

    Chrome Delta Ball Light Shell

    No guts or switch assembly, no lens, just the shell and lamp holder. Missing the screw or rivet that holds the front bezel on, but it actually stays on alright without. It's in decent shape, good chrome, so if you have a crusty light with good guts, you could assemble one nice light. $30...

    Wanted: monark train light

    Looking for a monark train light, just the shell is fine, but a whole unit would be fine too. If possible, would like color scheme to match my bike pictured below, but anything will do. Thanks!

    Shelby Hiawatha Arrow

    No, not the Hiawatha Arrow you're all thinking, but another Arrow. Picked this up off my local Craigslist, same bike from this thread: http://thecabe.com/forum/threads/yet-another-chance.89920/ Really nice condition, paint is all original and pretty much intact, but faded. Lots of chrome...

    FS: Shelby Wishbone Frame Project

    Here is an uncommon Shelby wishbone frame. This isn't the parallel bar version but the style with the upwardly curved bottom bar. This has been overpainted several times, but it looks like a lot of the original paint is intact underneath, you can even see the original Shelby decal on the...

    Shelby project

    Here it is, everything you see minus the grips, they aren't original anyway. It's going to need quite a bit to get it fully restored. I'll sell it for $250 shipped. PM if you're interested and I'll give you payment information.

    Shelby project

    How much of a project are you looking for? I have a frame and fork I would sell you, no tank. The tank for that frame is kind of hard to come by, but it you're interested in the frame set, I can post some pictures if you'd like.

    Aerocycle at auction

    Regarding the Aerocycle, even it is a partial repaint, how often do you see these come to market? I think $9400 is pretty much going rate for one of those, there isn't really much to be done to that bike; you could probably even bring out the original paint if you were careful. If I had...

    1920's Elgin Moto

    It's later than '25, the New Departure Model C hub was produced from 1927 to 1933. That style chainring was used on Elgins up until around 1930. I'm going to say yours is probably a '29 or '30.

    Girl's Shelby Traveler - Super Original

    I know exactly where you got that, I had my eye on that same bike for awhile but never had the funds for it. Having seen it in person, I can say that it is even better than it looks in the pictures. Glad it went to someone who will appreciate it, this needs virtually nothing done to it.

    1930 Elgin Redbird

    Thanks, I'm in the process of derusting everything right now, I'm not going to replate anything, just remove the rust. I'm going to try to bring out and preserve as much of the original paint as I can, but I'm already running into problems; the white darts on the fork are especially fragile, I...

    Diamond Chain Company FACEBOOK post

    Of course it never hurts to ask, I'm just trying to give some perspective and be realistic. The only way I see modern inch pitch chain being manufactured would from a private craftsman, much like the reproduction singletubes and other prewar tires we are seeing. No modern tire company is going...

    Diamond Chain Company FACEBOOK post

    It wouldn't make economical sense for them to start producing 1" pitch chain since there is such a small market for it. No modern bicycles use inch pitch, no industrial equipment uses inch pitch; it is an outdated size. There is absolutely no demand other than from a small group of...

    Wanted: New Departure Model C brake arm

    Looking for an arm for a Model C rear hub. I would prefer one in good condition with plating intact and with red paint in the lettering still present. Doesn't have to be NOS, but I don't want one that looks like it went down with the Titanic either. Let me know what you've got, please send...

    1930 Elgin Redbird

    Picked this up from a Cabe member on my way out to my family reunion this weekend. I'm pretty sure it's a 1930 Elgin Redbird based on extensive research. It's missing a front fender, but everything else is there. It did come with handlebars, pedals and both wheels, 28" Wood clad, New...

    Does anyone have a scan of the 1930 Sears Catalog?

    Looking for a better quality scan of this page from the 1930 Spring Sears catalog, more specifically, the left hand side with the Elgin Redbird and Oriole, this is the only image from this catalog I can find and it's very hard to read the details. Thanks!

    Sweet Evangeline...my new Shelby Rex!

    Nice looking Shelby, that Rex badge is uncommon, I have a boy's frame with the same badge in rough shape, I haven't seen another example of it until now, glad you could save another girl from being butchered.

    What Is Missing?

    Cleveland Welding used rear facing dropouts and skiptooth drivetrains well into the 50's, this frame style looks more 50's to me than anything, but can't say for sure what year it is; post a pic of the serial number and we should be able to narrow it down.

    Elgin built Firestone Pilot help?

    Great bike! Regarding Elgin naming, it's a common misconception that Elgin was a manufacturer when in fact Elgin was just a brand name used by Sears for bikes sold in their stores. Elgins were made by various manufacturers including Murray Ohio, Westfield, Monark, and others. After World War...

    Sunday's Show and Tell. ....9/21/14

    Girl's Colson Looptail

    Yeah, I thought the fork looked incorrect, it looks like an H.P. Snyder fork. I also suspected the chainguard was aftermarket as well. If anyone has the correct chainguard, rack, and headbadge, let me know, I may be interested.

    Girl's Colson Looptail

    He's the one, he did a great job bending the fork back on my '27 Schwinn, so I don't think he'll have a problem with this one.
  43. W

    Girl's Colson Looptail

    Yeah, the fork legs and the steer tube are all bent, but I have a guy who can bend them back for me. I started stripping away some of the paint and it looks like the headtube area is a light blue and the rest is a dark blue, it's going to look great when it's done.

Any idea on manufacturer...
