I found myself with some extra time after graduating college and I found this bike in my parents garage. It was my Dad's during college. Found out it is a 1953 from serial number, What years are the Chicago years? Couldn't read "Chicago" on badge.
Anyways, thanks RATRODBIKES.com for all the inspiration and advice.
The registration sticker my dad used at school
I put my last name into the chain gaurd
I don't think it is done yet. I wanna put a back fender about 120 degrees. I also want to get some black springer forks and paint the beehive springs white. maybe some black handle bars. Oh well I'll have to wait for some more cash.
