I live for the CABE
A good friend gave me this bike-he was the original owner, getting it for Christmas in 1963. When I was tearing the Bendix automatic to rebuild, there was even a small piece of Christmas tree tinsel wrapped up behind the sprocket! A free, all original and complete Deluxe Flightliner (with exception of missing headlight light lens and bulb assembly and rear tail light assembly). It doesn't get much better than that!
Here is what it looked like before the teardown:
After teardown, all parts in the oxalic acid bath:
Removing the clear coat was a pain, but that gleaming chrome is worth it!
Waiting on tires so should have this old girl up and rolling by the weekend.
