Sunday's Show and Tell...6/24/18

I found this Sears Elgin at a farm swap meet this weekend. It was sold for garden art with a 24" rusted rear wheel and chain. The forks were stuck along with the crank. Serial number "4278 MOS-K". I managed to free most parts, so it may become a rider. 'Shawn M.

Picked up a really cool Pontiac Double sided light up dealer service sign and a couple ND 2 speed set ups. Some like it because it's Pontiac, @fordmike65 likes it because it says lubrication.

I picked up a great pair of unused antique " Crown Brand " boat oars for display with the antique row boat I bought awhile back .. and they are actually the correct size for my boat !!

Kind of a busy week. Picked up this Corvette because I needed a kickback

Then this ‘40 DX arrived Wednesday

Then a newbie listed this King Sting on here and it happened to be in my town so I had to take a look and couldn’t walk away

To close the deal on the king sting the lady said if you take the Sing I’ll throw this in. It happened to be my wife’s childhood Bike and it’s the correct year

This weekend I found this wooden travel chest in less then desirable condition. Someone once tried to make it pretty and painted it red. I picked it up for 12$. Once I restore it I have found its a near perfect size to hide a few of my records out of sight.

The back side of it still has the original alligator skin covering. It should look pretty decent with a bit of work.

I might leave that red finish as it looks vintage, and just polish it up with some shoe wax / polish. I do plan to clean up and stain the wood frame, and also clean up the painted brass hardware and replace the missing leather handles with a old leather waist belt that I'm sure I will be able to find in the right size and aged condition at goodwill.

CL score; 2 skateboards,the Variflex is actually pretty rare and I honestly didnt realize how valuable the "flat"(no concave)Sims Flagship was,all I knew was it was my first "real" skateboard when I was a kid
