Just a small detail today. Added a nos seat post clamp to my Phantom project. And yes, I know it’s on backwards, but it looks better to me that way. Gotta love shiny parts!

wow looks good Bob !! fork fenders and rims really came back nice

It took around 2 1/2 hours, much heat, much penetrating oil, the modification of tools and sheer brute force in the end.
But the 1898 'Quadrant' rear hub finally came apart, with no issues.....

...wonderful, 123 year old quality engineering at its finest!

Now to rebuild the wheel.
