I regret letting this one go but really had no choice. Pic as found and then as far as I managed to get it. Don't know what ever happened to it. 36 Shelby badged Spiegel Airman.

I've got to ask, what was going on with the fork in the second picture??
It looks raked out...but I don't see any bends...and I don't see the steer tube flipped around custom-like.

I believe it is in the spring bolt. It’s really tight in the before picture, and backed off more for a lighter rider in the after pic.

Sat in a corn crib for years. Slowly coming together to be on the road again.
