Schwinn Auto Cycle Deluxe Double Duty

[Autocycleplane]

I love it, congratulations on another fine acquisition.

I would love to see a good photo of it alongside your green Ranger Motorbike.

Have a look at this beauty... I picked up a 1938 Auto-Cycle Deluxe with a double duty fork in blue and cream.

Very nicely restored (west coast) and done many years ago with red pins and great chrome. This Excelsior has a double duty fork that's not been cut down, a fore brake and cross bar handle bars w/ EA buttons and a speedo, pogo seat, large rear reflector, chrome guard and rear rack with a fender bomb and duel lights up front!!! The handle bar is OG but the x bar may be a good reproduction, I'm trying to get that confirmed by a former caretaker who also shared the interesting chain of custody, this bikes worked itself around various well known collectors and CABE members over the years.

The bike is at a buddies body shop, I'm trying to color match the blue paint for a small chip. These are the pictures I took last week when I dropped it off, when the bike comes back I'll shoot better photo's.

I can only imagine the excitement some kid would have had finding this under the Christmas tree in the late 1930's. Makes me feel like a kid just looking at it!
