The effects of old age and a defective memory. Most of us have seen something similar. I remember a few years back a friend of mine asked me to look at her dad's bike he had from the '40s. So I'm standing there looking at a Huffy Camaro and trying to tell him the bike is from the '60s and he's...

I book my reservations about five months out so the weather is never a consideration!

I remember when Nick pointed out the differences between the early and later bikes as well other variations.

Ummm... not only door but jewels, battery tray, switch, and back half is primer. Yep looks like a bargain to me!

Yep bought that in Statesville but it has since moved on.

Did ‘38 use standard e.g. T10s?

$45

John, Shoot me an email [email protected] Thanks, Shawn

The bike may have been a B507/B4 optioned with the fenderlight in which case it would not have had a tank.

Any pics from past years events or is this the first one?

Both repo and original are available but original will likely be more $$$. Try @bicyclebones both here and on eBay. Might want to attend Memory Lane next week.

My ‘38 Robin has this stand which is correct for my year.

Looking repaint to me.

I'd just service, clean, ride. As juvela mentioned this bike has very little value and a decent set of tubes and tires will exceed the value of the bike.

My fault, not sure why I was thinking Skylark but like you say the Robin never used a drop stand either. The most economical route would be the middle stand you pictured.

It'll work but not correct for a Skylark

It would be best if you would have posted this in your original thread otherwise it's just confusing for folks.

The later ones looked like the one on this bike

The original Phantoms (1949-1959) have the same rims. Repo Phantoms, Cruiser 5s, etc… have different S-2s.

…if you really want to rile your HOA…

B6 an and Panthers and probably others. The trick with S-2s is knowing what the earlier versions looked like compared to later versions.

Not sure if pre war and post war are different but you may want to specify.

I believe 1937 and earlier CWC

I’m gonna say what’s left of a ‘46/7 DX

Yep not a Phantom!

Just curious what the serial number is of the '49? Pics of it?

When I click on that Sold thread I do not see the original pics of the bike?

Just curious why you would want to put that on a Phantom? Factory was either a regular front hub or a Forebrake.

I guess I need to do a piece for fronts too.

The tires mentioned above are ok but don't look like vintage tires and IMO dont match well with an original bike. I like John's Chain Treads and that is what I have on most of my bikes. If its a Schwinn you can find the Typhoon Cord black walls pretty easily.

Buy a fender with the ducktail and ‘bob’ it.

$1800

This one looks to have a similar chain ring but not much else matches up and the maker was never identified. https://thecabe.com/forum/threads/yard-sale-find-montgomery-ward-muscle-bike-any-info.206173/

I don't have the book handy but believe this is pictured in the Elgin/Hawthorne book with the rack like on Glenn's bike. I have seen another one of these and it had the same rack.

Actually a 1972 SS 454 El Camino

Can you post pics?

$30

Looks to be an import. Can we see better pics of the head badge and decals? Kinda looking Kent-Holland?

While I probably have close to 20 Schwinns I appreciate a little bit of everything-variety is the spice of life!

I'm confused by your post. Are you looking to fix this or flip it? I'm assuming this is the same bike https://thecabe.com/forum/threads/fbm-ingo-bike-scooter-150-barbertown-ohio.240908/ If looking to fix contact @Rambler for Ingo parts. If looking to sell it needs to be posted in either for...

About 15 years

When you get to 80 let me know what the space looks like!

I'll kick it off $1000. Is the battery box solid/complete?
