Thanks Dave K, I posted the BC because I couldn't find "C" model for 1938; I'm still learning. So from what I've read so far, this is a 1937 with a 1938 serial number?
Are we assuming that serial numbers beginning with "Z" are towards the end of 1938?

I wish I knew im going to pull the crank tomorrow. So hopefully that gives me a little info. And the catalog pics doesn't have the crossbrace bars is that not OG you think ??

The bars could have been swapped at the bike shop when new. Although, the catalog would state 'chromium braced' versus the 'boy scout'. IMO, I wouldn't sweat it; it looks better. Sure is purdy.

Okay here's my first question. I pulled the crank off and not sure what the stamping means on this one. I've never seen his before. But it is stamped a 36. Hmmmm. @Freqman1 @REC
