I build stuff.
Well guys, it's been fun again. I finished last year's build-off and had it in my mind that I wouldn't do it again, but I just couldn't stay away. Thanks for the memories.
I had kind of thought that I might add some more bits and pieces to this bike, but time is thin and life is thick. It's a rider and it's a head turner, when I rode around taking photos today others slowed down in the road to do the same. I like this bike, I would have much rather been shooting photos of G.I.JESSE JAMES today, but that's life.
This is a 1956 J.C. Higgins, build in West Germany while the US Murray factory employees were on strike. You can review the build here: viewtopic.php?f=67&t=58840
Once again, it has been an honor to build alongside such talented builders as the ones on this forum. I present to you, Higgins the German Spy.
