Monark super deluxe

Hello, I've been away from this sight for quite awhile since I last restored my Monark. I've held some health issues and now doing better. I hope my before and after come up on this posting. The old wreck showed two years ago for $ 200 on Craigslist and another $500 invested proved to do it justice. I did all the work myself from sand blasting to base coat/ clear coat. Although its not completely purest correct, its still a joy. I still have been keeping up with this site yet not putting any responses in. I'm sorry for that because it seems like such a great network of devoted friends. After learning some of what this sight has taught me, I find at times my mind is becoming a cesspool of trivia! If you could please look under the wanted section and see that I'm really trying to locate a rear fender for a 1935 Elgin oriole. The one I have is terrible. Its crowned and its only 2 1/2" across. Hoping among all the collectors someone will come to my aide.....Thanks, Roger

Wow, looks great Roger! Nice work.

Now THAT makes me want to get going on some projects I can't seem to get to. BEAUTIFUL JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Beautiful. What more can I say?

nice monark super nice job done. also like the roadster in garage .brings back memorys of my blue roadster from bicycle larry

It's always nice to see car guys getting involved in bicycle restoration. Great results and I know you will enjoy displaying your bike at car meets.

Thanks for all the kind words. After restoring a few vintage Harleys and plenty of hotrods, I always wanted to start on bikes and here I am now working on an Elgin. Hope to find a back fender and have it done by Spring to send some images. Nice band of brothers on this hobby site......Roger`

great color combo on that bike

Wow, gorgeous! Doesn't have to be perfectly correct to be perfectly cool! LOVE the colors... so nice to see before and after, thanks for posting.
