Loaded Prewar Ace

I was lucky enough to pick this up off craigslist today....blue dial clipper, torrington stem,locking fork,delta hornlite, battery tube and horn button. I’m not a Schwinn guy but it’s very cool bike. I’ll clean it up a little tomorrow

I’m guess your gonna relace the rear fender at some point? I see it still has the lacing hoops on it.

If I keep it I’ll relace the rear fender.
Thanks for the pictures, it’s right out of the book.
Why no truss rods ?

Would you consider selling me the hoops if you replace the fender?

Relace not replace
I guess a P makes all the difference
