What bikes did you add in 2019

-
I did what? Kinda a blend of a Wards Duralium semi-mutt late 30's/feel free to correct me. I find many aluminum SK's and Wards survivors a project of parts and somewhat Custom unless found bone stock complete, but I dig 'em. That's how this one came to be. Still waiting to be wired up.

I did what? 30's aluminum all kinda a blend. Wards Duralium semi-mutt above late 30's/feel free to correct me. I find many aluminum SK's and Wards survivors a project of parts and somewhat Custom unless found bone stock complete, but I dig 'em. That's how these one came to be. Wards Air Flo cycle is fairly Custom as well, especially the airflow handle bars ( I couldn't resist!), some still waiting to be wired up. The SK Wing bar is closer to stock but hardly all correct.

The bronze 1967 CCM 2 speed duomatic ( stock) with the accessory radio on the handle bars was one I bought back this Summer/found locally I sold ( not the same guy I bought it from?) about 25 years ago. The '41 Elgin Twin Bar was one I bought back this year as well, restored back in the 80's, sold in about 2012. Same with the green '52 Schwinn Panther. The Rollfast found it's way back to me as well through a local collector. That goes back to the 90's when I got it, but originally belonged to a pal in the 80's.

Cabe members made up the other purchases in 2019. I was equally as crazy in 2018, but after downsizing about 8 years ago ( divorce) I felt I had better get back on track!!! A couple of faves in 2018 were the Huffy Radiobike and an original 1969 Schwinn Lemon Peeler...hmnn and a 1938 CCM Flyte, '53 JC Higgins Colorflow...Murray Fleet line, BSA Paratrooper, '58 Schwinn Jaguar......It's been a good run and if all goes as planned, another coming later this month! Ha!! Sorry I'm such a KLUTZ posting pics. Technically challenged.

WOW...…....Guys like you help the hobby fresh and active!! Good job!
 
Sold more than I bought but found some killer long tankers that were nicer than what I had so i.d. consider this an upgraded yet smaller collection. My keepers first, than a cool monark I sold off housepainted ugly unfortunately and a columbia shaft drive that I sold. Cool bike just not in my favorites catagory

You and I both bought a wad of crap...……………..Good crap...………..
 
This tread is amazing. Is it safe to assume most of these bikes were found at swap meets? I'm asking that based on the quality & diversity you all have. I don't really see a lot of bikes like these for sale. (ebay-forums etc.)
