The guy has run that for the last few months and is slowly dropping the price. If it were the real deal it would probably would have sold by now. V/r Shawn
 
I don't know much about Colson, but ran into a looptail this past weekend at a antique store. It had a sticker decal instead of a badge on the front. Planning on picking it up this weekend. Was doing research when I ran into this listing.
 
Post some photo's when you get it, the Colson loop tail is one of my favorite frames.
 
It might not be a "deal" but it is a beautiful bike that almost never comes up for sale. I'd pay that much to own an original paint example.
 
Not 100% on this , but I have seen a few original postwar grillnoses and they have used the guard similar to the firestone supercruiser in design.

I have my prewar grillnose in the Dave S. restoration cue even though I strongly prefer original paint bikes...but I make exception with truly rare models like the 1941 Imperial, which I have never seen for sale anywhere near complete in my 7 years in the hobby except once at a local PA auction (being totally housepainted).

Really a cool bike, possibly underappreciated not being really "out there."

At least he admits in the ad its a postwar made up prewar bike, (other sellers might try to sell as prewar), why go through all that trouble, should have just started with a prewar frame, kinda like making 39 Autocycle with a Phantom frame, as John said it would be sold!
