Riding a '38 Autocycle Deluxe
1. Road Bike Parts Pack: you get a Schwinn-approved headlight with stem mount; German-made Schwinn generator with mount; and two sets of road bike rat trap pedals. I have not tested the generator and headlight, but I do believe they work. The generator turns freely and nothing is loose. The head light could be cleaned a bit, but is in decent shape. The headlight stem mount is complete. You also get two sets of road bike pedals from the '70s: a 9/16 set for your English bike and a 1/2 set for your Schwinn. The 1/2 set (the chrome set) is a weighted, self-righting set. Both sets spin freely. There's a little runout on one of the axles on one of the silver pedals, but it's not bad. Both sets function and can be ridden. $33 shipped in the lower 48 for all of this.
2. Vintage cruiser/American bike set: you get a set of rear drop screws and a Westfield/Columbia front hub. The screws have good threads. One is slightly bent, but they both should work. You probably can straighten the slightly bent screw in a vise. The front hub is from a 1940s-era Westfield 26 inch ballooner bike. The shell appears to be milled from a single piece of metal rather than pressed together (at least it looks that way?). The front hub turns freely - probably just needs to be cleaned out and re-greased. You get this set for $30 shipped in the lower 48 states.
3. English bike pack: a 1955 Sturmey AW 3-speed with an alloy aluminum hub shell and appropriate shifter. The AW is from the mid-50s. Shell has some dings and scratches, but no breaks or cracks. It's a 40 hole rear shell. I have re-greased and re-oiled this hub. It should work properly and is ready to lace into your English wheel set. It's a premium, uncommon hub with a lightened shell. It also comes with a really, really clean brass-faced Sturmey shifter. This is a "window" shifter also from the 1950s era. It's very tight and should work really nicely. It's a good match for the hub for your English bike project. This stuff is from the 1950s 'golden age' of Sturmey Archer, when their quality was second-to-none. $50 shipped for these in the lower 48 states.
4. Schwinn and Reich bell pack: two Schwinn badges: a large oval and a small 'winged' badge. The winged badge is from a 1950s lightweight Schwinn. Badges are in good shape. These badges also come with a Reich German bell, at least I think it's a Reich. The bell has a crown on the lever. It works well and has a quite loud, double ring. Bell looks 1950s-60s era, but could pass for any time period. It's very plain and classic looking. $30 shipped in the lower 48 states.
