Discovered today that the stem expander bolt on my Roadmaster is stripped and won't fully tighten. Length is 6" and head is 1/2". Thinking this is a common bolt, need an NOS one to get me out of this fix!
I bought a new reproduction SW Clipper Speedometer which came complete except there were no instructions included. I'm not familiar with this model, so if anyone has an instruction sheet that they would share I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks!!
In need of a 1953 bicycle license plate.
I'm looking for an actual city plate, NOT the cereal box state plate.
Should be the smaller sized variety like the one shown. Any city or town.
Thank you!
Looking to buy the tail light assembly that fits this rack on my 53 Roadmaster. Not sure if it's just a tail light or a tail light/brake light combo. Thanks for any help!
Looking to buy the following:
Roadmaster headlight, red or green, original or repop. Must be presentable and working.
1953 License plate, any city or town, no cereal box license plates, prefer smaller sized plate.
Tan, brown or beige colored torpedo (pointed) grips.
Postwar Men's 26" TANK BALLOON tire bike with HEADLIGHT and REAR CARRIER.
Should be complete, ride-able, presentable. I like OG paint and parts that cleans up well. I like patina but not rust buckets.
NO projects or parts bikes.
I live in Romeo, Michigan. I work full time so I can not drive...

PLEASE: I know this is the "for sale" thread, so delete this wanted ad if not appropriate. I have it posted in the "wanted" as well, not many responses.......

Bought this on ebay, NOS in original package. It's called a Mock Motor, thinking 50's-60's. 98 cents new back in the day. Cheapo plastic toy. Stick the yellow piece into the hole on the back, clip it to the fender brace, and wake up the neighbors! Haven't mounted it to any bike yet. Just thought...
There's no "Make Offer"option on this one, or I'd be tempted. And, is this the seller who blocks people for making offers? LOL. I'm not touching this one!

Please indulge me. I collect postwar 26" bikes, but here in Michigan, everything is hibernating in the shed until spring. I live in a house that was built in 1845, and my living room has a wall space available that I'd like to mount an old bike to that will compliment all the vintage items in...
Most of us search for original parts for our bikes, but sometimes certain items are difficult to come by. If there are items you'd like to see made again, post them here for everyone to see. I'm hoping that "maybe" if enough interest is created for certain parts, those with the talent that read...
Want a pair of Rocket-L grips in Red, Black, White, Cream, Brown or Orange. New or used, with or without streamers. Fins must be intact. Thanks guys and gals!
After the original chain snapped over a week ago on the first ride attempt after assembly, I purchased an NOS 56" Diamond chain. New chain arrived, but I had to remove 3 links to make it the right length. That's where the fun started. Unlike most of the seasoned bike veterans here on the CABE, I...
55 Hawthorne Deluxe. 1/2" pitch, about 55 inches in length. Dang thing snapped on me right after final assembly of bike this morning! First time that ever happened. New or used, complete and in good shape preferred.
Some assembly required. Batteries not included!
Actually one 6 volt lantern battery in the tank powers everything. Sealed beam Delta headlight, brake light, tail light, turn signals, and horn. Turn signals light, but don't flash. Still have to figure that out, and the horn is still a mystery...
I'd like to remove these 3 stickers from the rear fender. I realize they've been there for 50 years, but I want to install a topper over the reflector and the stickers kind of look like overkill anyway. Any suggestions for removing them without damage to the OG paint? Thanks guys.
WTB 2 or more tires like the ones in the picture (not my bike). Thread can be red, green, maroon, nearly any color except black. 26" balloon tires. Love the looks of this style, can't find a source though. Any help greatly appreciated. Thanks, Al
Wanted in working condition. Or the working guts of one in poor condition. Either way, I have a nice looking head light that doesn't work, and I want to rectify that. Let me know what you have via PM please. Thank you
I never give up!
I'm trying to buy a post war men's 26" balloon bike with a tank, headlight, and rear rack. I'd prefer an OG complete presentable bike and will need it shipped to Romeo, Michigan 48065.
I will consider all offers today. I will quickly communicate with all sellers.

OR any other Western Flyer 26" men's balloon tire bike.
Gotta be postwar and have a tank, headlight, and rear rack.
Prefer a complete OG paint bike.
Don't want to buy on ebay, help me out please!
Must have tank, headlight, and rack.
Looking for OG paint. Please NO SCHWINN bikes.
I'd like a turn-key bike that's complete rather than a project or rust bucket.
My bucket list includes, but NOT limited to these:
Western Flyer X53, or Super.
Roadmaster Luxury Liner.
Monark Firestone Imperial...
Sorry no serial # available. This is a ebay bike I'm considering. Owner knows very little about it. Currently has middleweight tires on it. I'd like to know:
Year: As close as possible.
Middleweight or balloon tire bike?
$ Appraisal in your opinion. Asking price is $675 OBO, plus shipping...
These are the last of the items I'm selling. You get the F lag set and the Flexgrips.
Flag holder is vintage, flags are newer.
Flexgrips are original rider quality with some wear tear and scuffs. Identical but one says "Model B" and the other one doesn't. They both came off the same bike...
Not sure of the brand, Marked made in Hong Kong. Complete with bracket, and bulb. D size battery not included. Unit works! Forgot what I paid for it, thinking $20 shipped is fair. Paypal please, USA only.
USED, pretty basic. W hat you see in the pics. Not sure if nuts are original as they aren't the square style. $6 shipped for the pair. Paypal please. USA only.
USED piece, NOT working. Missing one of the 2 red plastic turret caps, otherwise complete. I bought 2 of these on ebay, one worked, this one didn't. Maybe something simple to repair, or maybe just something cool to mount on the handlebars. Either way, it's priced to sell quick! $20 shipped...
USED 60's battery operated bell. Works when it feels like it, has crack (see pics) and has been super glued a few times. Didn't want to throw it away, figured someone may want it. I'm guessing it will cost about $6 to ship, so the price is $6 shipped! Paypal please, USA only.
Have 2 sets (8) WALD bicycle hubcaps. All identical and ready to mount. These are the original screw on type in good rider condition with the red reflectors. $60 for all 8 shipped. Paypal please. USA only.
No longer using this. Working ARVIN AM radio/horn combo. Takes 4 D size batteries, not included. Bought NOS on ebay 2 years ago and installed it on my 59 Evans. Cool piece, attracts lots of attention. Selling for much less as it is now used. Complete and ready to install and enjoy. Will include...
2 pairs of grips for sale. Black pair are "Flexgrip" good rider quality $15 shipped. Red pair are rare NOS "Rocket-L" grips. Embarrassed to admit that I messed them up. I paid real good money for these because they are so hard to come by. But they were yellow. So I painted them red, and they...
This pic is of my Dad in his wagon taken about 1933. He was born in 1929 and I'm guessing he was about 4 at the time. His name is Raymond. I'd like to find a wagon like this and have his name done on the side just like the picture. Was this common at the time? My grandparents weren't rich, this...
Colder weather is coming and I'm curious as to how you guys in the colder climates keep your shed or other out buildings warm. I'd like to spend some time in my 10X12 shed this winter. Lighting is also a concern as there is no electric power to the shed at this point. Right now my only light...
Not that I'll ever own one, but I've always been fascinated by the Spacelander and its history. And I notice that not a lot is said about them here on the CABE. So, if it's OK, I'd like to start a discussion about them, pro and con. Who owns one (or more than one), what are they worth in the...
Not sure what the technical name is for these screws. I need 2 of them. About 2 1/4" long. With or without nuts. Mine have slotted heads, but non-slotted is OK. Thanks!
Been trying to find a source for some retro looking decals. The kind of decals kids used to put on their bikes in the 50's and 60's. Cartoon characters, gas and oil, pin-up girls, etc. Seems the ones on ebay are too large for fenders and tanks. Any suggestions would be appreciated!
My 54 Huffy Dial Your Ride has this sticker on the front part of the rear fender. "Commended.....Parents' Magazine"....Looks like it's been there for some time. Anyone have the same sticker on a bike. I'm afraid to pull it off because the paint underneath it will be shinier then the rest of the...
Just finished a few minutes ago, pending test ride as soon as the rain stops. Little crowded in the 10X12 shed, but that didn't stop me. Installed new wheel set from MLC, as well as new handlebars and a genuine 54 Detroit license plate. Everything else original to the bike. VERY pleased with the...
Cleaning a 54 Huffy Dial Your Ride, and assembling bike I just received. The rims, spokes, and hubs are really nasty. I don't think I'm going to use them even though I strive for originality. I also ride my bikes. Would this ebay item work? Current rims are 26" balloon galvanized (not chrome)...
