Sunday's Show and Tell...7/28/24

[Nashman]

I got my Russian Studebaker pedal car ( copy of a 1950 Studebaker like my BIG one) from a seller in the Ukraine. I felt I was supporting the Ukraine and my habit/VERY nice seller/shows him here taking it to the post office in a war zone/his area relatively safe this week. Also

just added a Delta Rocket horn to it today to finish it off. It has rear spring suspension.

was just about to ask if it was based on a Champion when the image of the 1:1 scale example came up

may have mentioned previously that when a small lad got to ride in me mum's father's Champion on a number of occasions. it was opaque tan with a tan cloth interior. the car was yet running when he passed at age seventy-six in 1965.

thanks very much for sharing this find!

In the kitchen no less. I'd be sleeping outside it a tent for sure if my wife ever saw me do this.

Sounds like she rules the roost? Ha!! That said, the kitchen is not ( usually) a great place to permanently house a bike, but it's a gals bike and perhaps belongs there, barefoot and pregnant? Ha!! I miss the good old days/ old school humour. We saw Bill Burr in concert last weekend, what a hoot!! I saw him when he 1st started comedy about 11-12 years back in a smaller venue here with my Son.

Also bought this 1897ish Schwinn quad. Luckily @catfish sold me a badge for this beast ( thanks). The bike has the double legged fork ,which in the catalog is only seen on the quint , and 4 matching sets of adjustable pedals. If anyone has an 1898 catalog please let me know. Trying to pin down a year.
