1930's Meets BMX
I saw this on Fleabay a while back, and the seller was asking a ludicrous amount for it. I made him an offer, to which the reply was he "could part it and make three to four times as much off of it" that way. The seller also said "I am not a professional." He proved that too.
Long story short, I ended up with it anyway, and the parts he said he could make so much off of, ended up in the garbage can other than the wheels. There are sitting aside due to the front brake assembly and rear hub. Here are a couple of the ad photos, and then some of the bike after the makeover was complete.
Going BMX was my first thought on seeing the bike, as I have a '36 B67 26" Double Bar Roadster (Klunker style), this bike was going to patterned after it. I could not find the 20" parts I was looking for, so I started looking for others. I think it came out pretty good. Thought I'd stick it in here and see what others may think.

Found further information on this bike, it is a Pre-War Colson, and now has a Colson head badge attached.
