Lucky 1950 Airman tank find

[10~18kustoms]

I was completely surprised and very fortunate to have found and been able to purchase this tank at the 35th Annual Midwest Springtime in the Ozarks Bicycle Swapmeet in Springfield, MO. The swapmeet takes place at the Peddlers Bicycle Museum. James Allen is the curator and host of the swap every year. I own one of these tanks & bikes, and have only seen about 5 or 6 others in pictures until now. This is by far the nicest one I have seen. AND, to make things even better, I actually own a mostly complete color match bike that was purchased years ago without a tank. I had installed a close match Rocket tank on it, but the bike is now complete. Thank you James Allen, you can not know how happy this has made me.

Before with Rocket tank.

Now with correct tank

No sorry. I got it from a friend a while back and he has first dibs on it if I do ever sell it.
