On Training Wheels
Hi folks.... newbie to the forum here. I'm a buyer and seller of anything cool that catches my eye, and I picked up this bike at a yard sale today.... After researching, I think it's a 1939 based on the serial number, B59811, stamped on the bottom of the crank housing..... but other than that, I know nothing about these bikes. This one just caught my eye. Here a link to a dropbox full of pics.... https://www.dropbox.com/sh/z2hy2yqd8rxfnac/AABS5zOMt1Koxy2oq0bofDJCa?dl=0
So.... I'd appreciate your expert opinions and insight on the following questions...
1. Am I right on the year?
2. How original does this look? What parts have been changed?
3. What is the best way to resell it? I'm not in a position to restore something right now... My regular market is eBay.
4. What things should I focus on when selling and what things would I want to make sure to list to be fair to a buyer. Any thoughts on value?
5. What other cool stuff can you tell me about it?
My favorite thing is finding a gem, enjoying for a bit of time and passing it on to someone who willl truly love it.... and of course, making a few dollars along the way!
