Riding a '38 Autocycle Deluxe
From a midwest estate. I honestly try my best not to part out bikes that deserve a shot at
Preserved or Complete life. The 3 bikes in this collection I will be offering up in parts were restored to
a so-so not too bad level. Obviously much time and expense went into these projects.... Yet the issues and
inconsistencies observed would make a long list of "disclosures" and caveats to mention had I listed
them complete, thus lowering the expectations of the buyers. That being said, there were
alot of good restored parts here that went in to these builds....so off they go as parts!

#1. Nice Straightbar prewar restored frame as shown, Has a super nice The World badge...almost looks NOS
but has some very minor touchups to the green. Paint overall is fairly accurate and looks to be automotive
not cheap rattlecan restoration.. the serial number is buried by the paint, haven't tried to sand it..but the
frame has the seat clamp style of very early 40' back to 1937 style Straightbar Motorbike and Autocycle frames..
not the "D" typle late 40-41 . Also has the spring fork 'tube' that accepts the inserts for the fork stop.
Pretty looking frame, a few chips and scratches
350.00. FIRM
plus whatever shipping
#2. Nicely restored POSTwar Straightbar tank that was aboard a 1940 restoration of a BA-107 Autocycle
build. Paint quality is nice. Pinstripe surround is red, should be black pins, SUPER nice prewar Delta
Button horn unit. Some minor "tap tap" body work hammer marks can be seen on the underside/backside
where some dings where tapped out. Outside looks straight and perfect!
NICE TANK! I see beat rusted ones on ebay no horn going for what I am asking here...
350.00 Firm
plus whatever shipping
#3 SUPER nice 1938-1940 Schwinn Locking springer fully restored. Can't really pick this one apart...
paint looks pretty accurate, darts and pins...chrome is excellent. Original Yale lock on board.
Very nice Hard to find FIRST profile prewar Schwinn Spring fork fully restored
375.00. Find a nicer one?
You won't
plus the shipping
#4. Another from this build. A modified POST war Deluxe Schwinn Chainguard to resemble the prewar 41
guards. Really a pretty solid alteration here... You can see the work done on the underside but not glaring...
front clamp is even correct prewar. Straight with decent restoration paint and decal...
On the Bike? You would never notice this was fabbed from a post war guard.
100.00 plus the shipping
