Hi Paul,

I am looking forward to acquiring the majority of the parts from your Hercules Tourist parts bike.
I am happy to say, that I was able to purchase Paul's 1953 Hercules Tourist parts bicycle. Asside from the damaged front fork, the remainder of the bike appears to be in excellent condition. I have all the necessary parts to put the bike back to its' original condition. I will post photos of my work as I am able to complete each step of the work.

My completed work is going very slowly, as I am receiving chemotherapy treatments once a week to help me with the shrinkage of my metastiside tummers.

In any event, today I was able to replace the left crank arm on my Hercules Windsor bicycle with an original Hercules crank arm, as the bike originally came to me with an in-correct Raleigh left crank arm.
 
Keep it up Arnie, looking forward to seeing your projects

I am happy to report, that I was able to find on e-bay and purchase this diamond in the rough, 1953 Herumatic B type 3 rear 3 speed hub. Everything within the hub is in good condition except for the bearings, which I will replace with new bearings and fresh new marine grease. I will be lacing this hub up to a Dunlop 40 hole EA3 rear rim, with new spokes.

This 1953 Hercumatic 3 speed hub is in super clean condition. The completed rear wheel will look like new once mounted on the bike.

Today, I was able to locate and purchase a NOS Hercules mid 50s Front fork to replace the damaged fork that came with my Hercules Tourist Bicycle. I will have to do a re-paint for it to blend in with the original paint scheme.
