Don't know the history on this 58 Hornet Deluxe but maybe @Handle Bar Hoarder does? ( got it from him ) my nicest middleweight ( only one ) with some of my own touches, seat, bars, neck & HD S7 rims, all og parts hanging in the shed and will go back on if I ever sell it. Still looking for a OG faded Orange/red headlight!

I bought this 40 DX from a local bike shop many years ago. Was in the basement of the store since 1966 when it was traded in. It was in a local ad for $3500Can. I offered a lot less and she said she would think on it. A day or so later she called and said come pick it up. Had the drum brakes apart a few times and they still work as good as can be for drum brakes. Some changes I did, took the ugly chrome light off and added this one. The seat was very rough, I found this one, same as original.

My dream since I was a kid was to ride the beach areas in California, a few years back I did ride it there.

Im sure you guys have seen this but this is my favorite find because its local to Houston and 98% original only with wrong pedals and grips.
