I pulled this one out of the pile, kind of had it sold, my wife sees it & says, "Oh, that ones nice, I think I want that to be my new rider". The new basket fits nice.

This one puts the number of wrenches to 123.. Does that make me a hoarder ?

So this is not bike related but I've had this obsession in my head for the last few months about building a custom sport coupe out of a jaguar sedan from the mid sixties. And quite serendipitously I got a tip from a friend about a Jaguar restoration shop that was closing up in Massachusetts and they had two cars that were possibly going to get scraped if no one steped up for them. For less than the cost of a rusty Elgin tank bike I'm on my way. This project will probably knock me out of the bike hobby for a bit but I'm super excited to have some raw materials to work with. This thing is gonna be sweet!

Got another NOS EA horn on the '49 Merc from a friendly Caber this week. I have a fixation of dual fully endowed front ends, I dunno, does that make me obsessive? Or am I just like most males and like a good set?

A replacement stem for my girls Sliver King project arrived this week thanks to a CABE member.

I need to unload a trailer and a few boxes that have piled up but for now I'll share a couple small bits I was excited to get in hand.

The Pinnell Harley badge is the earliest I have seen, from right here in my hometown of Richmond this killer little brass badge has sat at the bottom of the James River for unknown decades before being discovered and gifted to me.

It is resting on top of a mystery 40 tooth chainwheel that I can't wait to ID and associate with a particular dream bike.
