Wore out three sets of tires already!
...okay...i've got this issue with huffman color combination's , well issue is a big word but difficult to choose, i like the iridescent blue with red, but almost every twin flex has that color combination i must say that is a very cool combination, now of course there are differance between the firestone/huffman bicycles and the national /huffman bicycles, i am building the national huffman... so in the 1937 catalog there are cool color combination but what do i choose, i want to have it different, so i was looking at the only picture of the streamliner in that catalog and it is "NATIONAL BLUE" with black , but that blue is different then the other blue's that in the catalog, also the yellow background is different so that is a printing issue, but also my only refference for that color.
So pictures and scanned folders are no good refferences to go from there, pictures of originele bikes are also difficult because there is still a difference between originele and picture of the originele, so do i want to go that far to find out the right color...hell yeah!
okay here is a scan of the originele National catalog...
that is what i am thinking, national blue with black
here is a picture of Jerry Berg originele iridescent blue/red ,
that is a way cool color combination and if my research failed, hee hee then i choose this color combination.
...but what is National blue looking like ? is it a solid color or where the body colors of huffman all metalic ? when i look at jerry peters his originele huffman airflyte, i was thinking that that is the national color, only the pictures are very bad and you see that the color is from each point different.
