Sunday's Show and Tell 1/10/20

-
Picked these up Friday, Craigslist ad that was in my neighborhood! I don't know much about these bikes, but both are "restored". The price was right. (I hope!)
The Super Deluxe needs some love at the stem/forks/springs. Not sure if it's missing some pieces or the parts are on the bike correctly as it sits. I will be reposting the Monark in the correct forum for this advise.

This is the Headbadge on the ladies' bike. Hawthorne Montgomery Ward. It still had tape on it from the frame being repainted. This is as far as I got so far peeling it off. It has taken some of the red off the badge! :(

I have no idea if I did bad or good on this deal... $150.
I sent you some thoughts on the Firestone about 20 minutes ago, for what my opinion is worth..ha!! You did well for $150.00.
 
Just in time for Show and Tell meet 1 1/2 year old, O Ya Bartender from the track in St. Petersburg, FL we're fostering him. I'm sure not everyone knows but all of the race tracks in FL shutdown at the end of Dec. and there are only 4 left in the U.S.. They make wonderful pets as my sister in law says you guys have old people's dogs, lol! Happy New year's to everyone things will get better you just have to be patient.

A diverse group of of arrivals this week. A 1991-92 Boulder Defiant Ti-titanium mountain bike frame serial #17. Finally a BMX for the collection, this is a one-off hand built frame made by guys in Trek factory. They used thick Klein aluminum tubing with Trek drop outs; the Klein paint guys custom airbrush painted the Star Wars details. A couple sweet stems arrived, thanks Mark! Two 28in wheel sheave kits from Tom Baggage for a couple early motorized projects (thanks for the lead by Dave Nash). A heap of beautiful wood rims, thanks Glen!

A friend is visiting his parents in the Palm Desert and just sent me this photo. His dads Christmas trike from his childhood! One owner!

It is a Firestone and while he didn’t mention it, I assume 1940’s? They want to clear the garage so he is bringing it back for me after the Winter has passed. My first trike!

In a town near us here in N.C. at a Panera Bread on Sunday mornings many owners of Greyhounds and Whippets get together for breakfast. They bring their dogs and get together. They are beautiful and well behaved dogs. Glad to see the race tracks are shutting down. The poor dogs like horses are only good to some owners etc. when they are winners.
