'39 Miss

Well, she's rolling. Still a lot to do, including finding a light bar. I believe these colors are very close to original & went full on patriotic w/ the clay reds. Adding red peddle blocks too.

Thanks for all the great comments, they're very appreciated. Everything about this bike is as a result of this fantastic website. All parts or info. were obtained somehow thru here. I've been thinking long & hard ( well, not too ) about the vast difference between the Miss America & the Skylark. Catfish's beautiful recent acquisition is a great example. The 'Miss reminds me of Rosie the Riveter and the Skylark brings to mind a Rita Hayworth or Lana Turner-esque painting you'd see on the fuselage of a B-17 one other WW 2 warplanes. Just an opinion, I really like them both.
