This is as far as I know the only correct reflector for WW2 Army issue G519 bikes

I believe that the oval reflector is original on my 1943 Dayton.

Hello,
The bike is coming along. I have still been unable to remove the headset from the bike so it is still getting soaked. Both rims are shot I am still soaking the rear rim and hopefully will be able to save some spokes. I saved 33 out of 36 on the front wheel. I felt good about that. The chain adjusters were rusted into place. I actually got one out and the other broke on me. It is now re moved and I have replacements. I straightened out the chain guard and am getting the fenders rolled. From the pictures that I have seen they look great! The original pedals were shot. The bearing races had grow into the cups It took 2 full days of soaking in evapo-rust just to get them where I could chisel them out.
I now have replacement rims and correct spokes and nipples are coming. I get to learn how to lace and true a wheel now!!!! I have not taken the rear wheel apart yet so I cannot tell you the hub numbers. Some of the insides of the hub were marked and that will be a later post
I have been picking up accessories for the bike in the mean time. I have original grips, light, reflector, bell , repop pump clip and pedals. I am working on an original pump and clip. When I get my tool pouch, I have an oiler, adjustable an air pressure gauge and Morrow tool. The morrow tool is a repop.
Hopefully I can start on the wheels next week.
