Sunday's Show and Tell. 4/20/25

[WillWork4Parts]

I was brought these in trade.

Late 50s Colson/Evans Olympic and 800 Viscount/"Lady Evans." I managed to trade 2 of my complete bikes with some parts for these and a rough Monark springer, I need to do those kinds of trades more often.
The guy left the girls wheels by the door as he was leaving the house but brought them by the next day, then I sold him another project bike and some wheels. I just haven't had time to reassemble the Lady Evans, I'll need to remove a broken fender bolt from the fork plate before it can go back together. These Evans Action forks are too cool! I may just rob the plate from my spare green fork to get her rolling.

The men's had a few extra decals...all three of "The Brain!" Haven't seen these before, was thinking Weird-Oh's, Weasel??

I had to add the keyword "EEOOWW!" to my search, but it looks like they were made by IMPKO. I really wish the Lady Evans had the "pinup!" Lmao

They were at one point distributed by Surre, so they very well could have been intended for bicycles! Ha

I put a couple of nice NOS headlights ( internal speedo's in lights) on a bikes as opposed to sitting in boxes. Mounting the generators or speedo drives just ( don't fit well) isn't practical. The bikes are display. I was never a fan of headlights on this vintage era, but these look pretty groovy IMHO. Happy Easter!

This week I finally found my Silverking Hextube chain guard.

I also got my medical sign to practice medicine

I also picked up another aerial vehicle for my living room anyone into BBC sci fi would recognize this ship.
