Thanks in advance for everyone's input to this thread. After searching the web the last week and coming up with nothing, I thought I should post my questions here. I Purchased last weekend in Austria a 1940's BSA bicycle (the seller came from Italy). The bike has an identical frame to the ever popular BSA airborne folding bicycles with the main exception that it is not fold-able. The only bike that I found that resembles it, is the BSA paratroop Model 904ACP, but not that many similarities

My bike does have holes where fenders would have been attached and also holes on the top left side of the frame where the brake cable would have ran through towards the rear wheel. I do know that most (all) of the parts on the bike are false - and I will be slowly trying to acquire all the correct parts - I started this thread to only approach the frame. The frame number is - R13244 and is located on the left rear dropout. If anyone needs more photos, please let me know. Thanks again in advance for any and all input! - Jon
