Double bar roadster most likely,but it's early in the morning and I'm no expert..

Thats a great bike! I recently got the same bike but its billed as a 1936. I thought that style fork was 36 only? I could be wrong. @CWCMAN would know. Clean, grease and ride!

I thought that at one time but I've seen a few with '37 serials which leads me to believe it isn't a one year only fork. V/r Shawn

Agreed on fork, not one year only.

Nice bike!

Obviously badged for and sold at Firestone Tire stores.

I want one in a tall frame version ...

 

[CWCMAN]

Ditto that on the fork. I have seen that version fork spill over into 1937 but I have not seen that style on any 38's that I am aware of.

There is another earlier version of that fork without the rabbit ears and it is used on some of the first production bikes of 1935.

Pictured is my early example. Also note the snub nose front fender and one piece non riveted fender braces.

CWC never made a tall frame. 19" seat mast only.

Yeah, I've been down that road. I really dig the early CWC's, but for some reason the 19" frame just doesn't fit me.
