The Best...!!!

I have been working hard using the wanted section to get small bits I need to properly finish bicycles. Thank you to Brian @ABC Services for the acorn nuts to complete my two Excelsiors. Also this cast iron stand arrived from the UK. I am still confused how the wheel clamp is supposed to work. It has a lovely original finish. And a group of parts for Evans cyclemotors.

Brant- that part of the stand holds the handlebar at the stem while the bike is upside down to work on. I’ve been looking for one of those for a while and they always seem to be missing those pieces

Late night Craigslist buy, MEIDAI foot pump, it has a neat look.

I'm a sucker for visually interesting vintage items that need a little wax and a good home.

Just wanted to clarify something. I did not buy the giant BF good sign.. I can’t buy five figure signs until my kids are out of diapers. New house rule I guess lol. I’ll get there someday I’ll keep trading paper clips for prewar junkers I’ll work my way up. I have the address if anyone wants to ‘drive past’. That wasn’t the house I stopped at I was way too early to just drop in. Have a good week everyone.

Decent appointment Monday morning. Weds My wife found this killer vintage cherry octo-table norm yankee quality. Found this patina hardware store ladder right next to the table when we picked it up I was able to beg him to let us buy it for $82 rest of the cash we had on hand. Amazing patina on the handles. Killer original gas station sign on back route 5/20 Monday morning. Trust me you know when you see this sign it hits you like the world stopped moving. never been on that stretch before. It’s this little part where you take the highway if you’re going like 2 inches further or closer. you never drive it down the strip. It’s breathtaking. Both sides pictured (no problem) I can get coordinates if needed. Happy Sunday everyone!

Finally got a few minutes in the shop. Apparently there is some original red and guessing white og paint under there should I decide an oxylic acid bath is in order.

And the 24” Shelby that someone painted red themselves. They really jammed that kickstand in there and I removed the banana seat and the incorrect bars.
