Thanks Shawn. Best I can make out is 558FA.......don't see an H, but it may be there, just painted over or my bad eyesite. The badge isn't original to the bike if I recall, or was missing a rivet. The resto is so/so, the bike a bit of a mutt, and I saw some issues after I bought from a Caber by pictures. He mostly made things right, but buyer beware. I still dig the bike.
My Firestone Fleetwood is a bit of a mutt too. So/so resto, but again a bit Dayton, a bit Firestone in my eyes. The S.N. looks to be H6234. Any thoughts/input?
It was missing some correct parts to be either ( tombstone rear reflector, putter stem, correct Mesinger long spring seat, Clipper speedo I added/swapped etc.) and then I dolled it up a bit with NOS Dual pre-war 6 rib EA's up top. One is a top load, the other a front loader, but they match almost perfect.
These are not perfect resto's or examples, but overall I'm happy with them. Coming up to 40 years collecting and getting rare bikes and parts in Canada can be challenging. I collect too many areas. I'm up to around 24 guitars now....Yikes.... Happy early July 4th Cabers. We had Canada Day July 1.
