Post pics of your "Fastback" zep-Hawthorne or rollfast

[indiana dave]

Sorry about calling mine a Zep. It's the oldest bike I've owned, and a guy at the local swap meet identified it as a Zep. and I took his word assuming he knew more than I did.
Not sure what model mine is, now.
I've seen a lot of pics, but they all seem to have some differences.
Might have had parts swapped from different years thru it's life.

Ya the name Zep has morphed to cover all of that style frame (Snyder built Rollfast, Hawthorne and a few other badges) streamlined sport, late 36-37 WARDS Hawthorne used this frame for their top of the line with added frame/fork lock, no rear kickstand among other top of the line options. I guess its kinda like when a lot of prewar Schwinn models are called Autocycle Deluxe (drives the Schwinn guys crazy), Owell still a lot of nice looking Streamlined, sport, Motobike models.

Hey Chris,
When I was hitting the $400.00 BIN button I thought, “I wonder if this bike is next door to Chris”
Getting up at 2:30 am and a cup coffee has it benefits some time.
