40 Colson - Phase 1

Super nice work.I feel kinda bad I got the last trussrods that came up.

That's okay. One will eventually pop up. Of course if you feel kinda bad you could sell it to me

1940 Colson - Phase 1 Complete. A Caber gave me this bike for recovering three seats. It took me 5 weeks to get it restored to this point. Obviously I had to replace almost all the parts. Several Cabers helped me along the way. The paint turned out nice and the matching blue thread in the seat is a nice touch. Phase 2 includes installing the snap tank, rear rack and the front truss rods. I need the front truss rods and bracket. JimRoy

That seat looks great. Did you redo it or someone else?

Thanks. I've recovered approximately 15 seats this year. I let Caber Steadalite do my stitched seats.
