Not familiar with this but know there are mass quantities of knowledgeable people on this site that can help me out! Chain ring looks post war.

That's fantastic. Looks like, in the picture I posted, the light is missing and there may be some home painting done to it. Tires are also roached.

This is a 47 Rocket. I think this is the last year for the train light so your's would be after that assuming the Delta top loaded is original.

No kidding! You did a great job! Wheels are true, brakes stop on a dime and no squeaks or rattles. Nothing for me to do except ride! I moved the red rocket streamer grips and brush guards along to someone that would appreciate them more than myself.
