And on the seventh day John rested...

I don't think John EVER rests! Well, maybe on the occasional 1st Sunday of the month

Oh that old thing. Yes, Fleetwood Supreme Streamline with original paint and the original aluminum fenders from the factory. Taken apart for the first time for me to clean and for Tamara to stand behind me shaking her head.

Nice!
I can't wait to see it.
I'm sure it's refreshing to get a bike that doesn't have to have some missing parts made for it.
You'll have to post some pictures, so that we can all stand with Tamara and shake our heads.

It should be at the next Coaster ride. It was missing the drop stand bolt but I found a original to replace it with and I broke one screw but I had an extra original.
