1948 or 1950 Continental with Cycle Lock!

I saw that way back when you first posted it. It definitely looks like a traveler fender set. Also, it looks like the early 60s fender design and not 50s because they had a different design on the rear fender where they connect at the stays.

A detail I never noticed! Thank you. It's really turning into a Franken-bike the more it gets looked at, lol.

I really need to get back to working on this though. I had been working on a bunch of bikes that were easy to do and flipped them, so now as winter approaches...:p

@HARPO, Somehow I missed this when you first posted it. Did you ever get any more done to this one?

Sadly, no. Its been on the back burner as other bikes came in. I actually took the Brooks saddle off and put it on the Raleigh Super Course I Posted recently.

Right now, I'm working on cleaning up the MOULTON I bought. :p
 
Well, I've decided that I'm going to put the wheels and shifter from my New World onto the Continental...when I get around to it. I still haven't found time to work on the Continental, but I feel that they will be put to better use on it. The year pretty much works out also..

I also saw that Black was available...so that might be the color I go with!

So what was the serial number on that repainted Conti? One little detail that you never mention or show. 😉 Was it a K hand stamped number or a D machine stamped number?
