Riding a '38 Autocycle Deluxe
Well done.I just finished a complete service and refurbishing on this 20" 1956 Spitfire I picked up last year for my great-grandson. Before and after photos show the oxidized red paint. Following tips here on the CABE brought that back to life. Thanks! It was all original, missing only the reflector. I found a period NOS WALD on eBay I put on it. Original tubes and tires were still holding air but the tires were so cracked I replaced them with a new set with the same brick pattern. Had planned to re-cover the original seat but recently came across the slightly newer red & white style I think looks nice on it. I repainted the completely faded head badge, the rest is still all original. This one's a close match to my childhood 1950 D-12. We'll have fun riding together when he visits!
