Riding a '38 Autocycle Deluxe
Just picked up this pretty nice prewar Columbia today. Drove about 82 miles each way in the snow. Probably should have waited but didn't want to risk waiting and missing it.
Pretty sure it's a 1941. I looked up the serial and bb code on mr columbia's site and think I have it figured out. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.
Serial is F129228
BB code G10 = October 1940 (I think)
Morrow hub code J3 = 3rd quarter 1940
It's cold and snowing so I just took some quick pics in the garage. Plan is to maybe try and get the fenders cleaned up a bit, service it and find a couple missing parts.
Looks like I'll need a drop stand, left pedal and headlight. Looks to me like it may have had a silver ray? Not sure if it would have had the dashboard or not.
