Second year in a row bringing this model home, brings me up to 3 total in my collection. 1939 Hawtorne Comet. Kansas City must have had a lot of these rolling around! This is the fourth one I have owned. Going to borrow the truss rod bracket for a nicer bike while I work this one over. Everything seems to be salvageable but the tires. Bars and neck are off now. Probably ditching the fenders.

nice score,Skoda.Folks,this is the pre-war Hawthorne I didn't commit to right away (see my comments on the El Torreon thread in the Events forum) and Skoda scored.This is the kind of stuff you'll find at the El Torreon Swap on a regular basis,year after year.Make plans to attend if this is the kind of KOOL STUFF your looking for! It's a no brainer.I know dos cruiser is already amping up for the 13th annual El Torreon for next year.Skoda,if you have several of these bikes maybe we could work a trade or something? PM me,buddy,if you want to...
