Black and Ivory, as it was first coming together. Great progress on this one; photos to follow in weeks ahead . .
Well, it took 6 months. What can I say ?
Here’s a bike I have always wanted to build. While not as stock original as Marty’s stunning black Excelsior BC, I always wanted to try the black/ivory contrasted with Original Schwinn Aluminum Gothics.
So, here we have an Excelsior badged 1939 BC117 (thanks Jim Taylor) with correct tank (thanks Eric), big chainguard (thanks Kim), big brake, old stock Bailey saddle, Gothics, long-cone Aluminum Delta HornLight, etc. Really enjoying how this turned out . . .
(now I just need that og AN307 key!!)
