Awesome color

Bought a model D rear hub on eBay. Looked funky when it arrived. Probably will work better on my long term Emblem arch bar truss project

But I used to be a Vintage Clothing picker & find more kool vintage picks when I’m hunting bike stuff

Probably early 70s Godzilla toy great paint

I have tons of fedoras but this is a great find mid 30s Stetson Bantam weight & vented
The method of sewing on the sweatband can not be replicated today that stitching stopped postwar
I’ll block & clean this one up EZ

And this kool later 50s Panama a decent semi tight weave

Sad to hear that the Bicycle Museum doesn't have the Rocket bike on display 39Rocket. It is one of my favorite bikes. This week I got one of those elusive Silverking Hextube parts from Bicycle Bones which has been eluding me for months. I am still looking for the chain guard. Keeping up with driving my wife crazy. I got this Klingon Bird of Prey for the livingroom.

The Miami Hudson I acquired from @John Haeberle back in November. Recently picked up the Miami stand so figured I’d pull the bike down and fart around. Rides great!! By no means finished, but nice to get it rolling today!

Got a phantom seat from Bob u a week or so ago and not that he didn’t do a killer job as always but I wanted it a little darker so experimented dyeing it and found the perfect combination! Was waiting for the Amazon to deliver the sealer and had it in my shed which decided to leak that night right on it! But redid it numerous times now and finally sealed it! First couple are how it came, then the drip….then after sealing it….should dull down as it dries!!
