Colson Imperial

-
Beautiful bike, what's better than a gill tank & a cushioner. I haven't seen any other of those Colson chrome fenders in that good condition. The date code should be on the BB. Pretty sure Evans went from 1954 to 1964. I agree w/ fordmike65 on the possible year.
 
Beautiful & Inspirational!
A real head turner.
I have not seen many of these.
Just a few photos on the web.
Wondering about the paint.
At first glance it looks new.
Then when I make things larger on my phone I am just totally blown away...
Yes, I do agree that it's early 50's pre Evans based on the catalog reprints I have looked at.
Perhaps someone could chime in regarding the head badge.
 
Thanks, the original paint is in good shape, someone drilled out the fender rivets and replaced them with rivet screws . The bike does have a nice ride.
 
Gorgeous! Definitely my dream bike. If ever I found a Bluebird, I would trade it for this bike...2 different tiers of rarity, but the Colson is my aesthetic hands down.
