Riding a '38 Autocycle Deluxe
I recently picked up a nice condition Western Flyer Delta dual tanklight. Not having any correct W/F frames for this to mount to yet, I need someone to take a few pictures of their Golden and a Murray badged Strato Flite that is equipped with this tank.
The pics I need are of the frame without the tank but, showing the factory mounting tab on the head tube and if there is a rear frame mounted tab.
Because this tank is not a "forward thrust" style, meaning the headlight bezel protrudes past the head tube, the tank only rests on the backside of the head tube.
I have plenty pics of the bike with the tank mounted. Just not the frame.
Cadillacbike, I know you have or had one...can you help me out.
Here is what the tank looks like mounted on the Strato Flite.
And here is the tank I just picked up. Thanks Chris, you have made a middleweight guy very happy.
Now here is a western flyer frame with possibly the correct tab welded to the backside of the headtube. But, this was designed for a "forward thrust" tanklight and bezel.
Here is the frame married with the correct style tanklight, a late 60s Sabre Flyer...this too is a rare tank.
Thanks in advance
