I keep second guessing my choices of what color to paint my Shelby. I seem to see quite a few photos of black and red. Which at first I thought was really cool, but the blue and yellow looks really good too. I want something that says "classic 1939"
My question is:
What were the colors that were available from the factory?

What are your favorite colors and color combos, drop a picture to show me. I am open to some suggestions.

Let's open the Shelby flood gates....... Hope the owners of these bikes don't mind but i'm posting them in a reference format. They all are great bikes that deserve recognition since Shelbys don't get recognized like Schwinns do. Here we go.....

Ok. As you can tell, it doesn't take much to egg me on. HAHA!! How about i open it up a bit to Hiawatha Arrows, No Nose bikes, and 36 Shelby banana tank bikes??? Us Shelby boys need love too. This isn't just a Schwinn world. Maybe i can convert some of the Schwinn boys over from those Canti frames to a better laid back seatpost Shelby? Once you ride a Shelby, i guarantee you will park your Schwinn forever!!!!!! You can test ride mine for yourself. My B6 hasn't seen the light of day in over a year.
