Sunday's Show and Tell ...11/12/22

[CWCMAN]

Nothing bike related to share, but I did add to my growing Volkswagen bus toy collection with this pair of Corgi's, one in the original box.

Also, my 12-year-old son who is a budding musician and turning out to be a real good guitar player has collected a few electric guitars with the help of mom and dad of course ($$$).

His latest is this LTD limited-edition Kirk Hammett purple sparkle guitar.

A basement fresh 1978 Dawes Echelon, judging from the color and components. Pretty much a Galaxy with tighter geometry. 531 main triangle and not bad Suntour and diacompe components. Needs a rear tube- someone couldn't figure out a presta valve and yanked the innards out of it, and it sat in the basement ever after. I'll probably wash and put it on craigslist. 50.00 it will probably go fast, 125.00 it will linger for months. For 10.00 I was about to leave it at the garage sale but my wife said I should take it...

This is a week late. Picked up this motobike tank. I think it has a ham radio call sign on it.

I also got this colson looptail frame that I have started mocking up. I'd like to get or make a set of curved braces for it. I need some trusses also.
That Long Beach Pike Swap was really killer.

I was forced at knife point with a rubber blade by a miniature devil on my shoulder to buy 2 more vintage outboard motors ( '64 Johnson and '61 Evinrude) from my late friends estate. I now have 6- 3hp motors. I bought one at a flea market about a month ago and it went on from there. I used to ( 25 years ago) have a large collection of both toy and full size vintage outboards, kinda got back into it. Been into the bikes and all stuff vintage over 40. I scored some vintage outboard emblems and a toy Merc

in a stash in the estate, and bought a few more toy outboards from Ebay. We got hit with about 10" of snow on Thursday...... I hate Winter. Have a great Sunday all!

A few things this week. @Wayne Cannon gifted me these Danica Patrick race car panels. They will be going to my brother

Also from Wayne is this antique wheel building jig that I will be selling for him on DOND

he also hooked me up with a quill bolt for my Tomahawk stem, a pull toy, and a really nice chain breaker.

Lastly a huge thanks to Pete @onecatahula for bringing me another baby carriage that @stezell picked up for me in Michigan. Also this ‘30s deco magazine rack that @dasberger picked up for me in Atlanta.

Thanks guys for helping me get these treasures home! V/r Shawn
