    Wasn't he a member here too? Widpanic02

    I believe he was removed from thecabe. He did some people dirty on some deals. He came to our local shows in Eden/Reidsville, NC. He would poormouth people and pretend he needed bikes for his collection, then turn around and resell immediately. He ended up making some sales and never came...

    Yours Truly circa 1987

    I'm seriously thinking of just building a clone of your bike. But maybe some hot pink lettering on the frame.

    Sorry Guys!

    Hey Richard. I'm from Louisa and have friends in Bumpass. Me and a friend used to have a makeshift bike shop in Mineral long ago across from the saw shop (saw shop might be something else now). But it was near Millers Market

    I should be there. Just bringing a few bikes. 39 Columbia, 36 Mead Crusader, a couple of prewar rats, and my highwheeler maybe.

    What was it?

    I've thought of trying to convert one to a full bike. If you need another, just break out a welder and some junk bikes!

    new 1937 columbia 3 star

    I think the worst feature is... 3-piece cranks. Totally limits you on chainring swaps, crank swaps. And while they may not have been trying to stay true to the original concept, I think a quick google image check would have allowed them to stay closer to original and spend the same or less money...

    EBAY Bid Fell Through

    If he issued a refund, it would go back to your paypal account almost immediately. You need to initiate a report through paypal immediately, as it takes a while for them to "investigate" but you'll get your money. Also save your ebay interactions with the seller, and call ebay and let them know...

    Fuel tank repair/resto

    This could also be bike related if there are any owners of Whizzers or similar here. I'm looking for a place I can take or send a fuel tank to to get dents removed, leaks repaired , etc. I've searched online, but have not come up with much. There used to be a shop in my town that did this sort...

    So we all Collect Bikes..What else?!

    That's investing in the future right there. When the economy straightens out you're gonna be rolling in the returns.

    ideas for a wooden tank?

    I did this one. It fits so tight in the frame you don't need clamps.

    So we all Collect Bikes..What else?!

    And I have no clue why I like temple tokens or prayer tokens. I have a lot of them, and some very odd ones at that.

    So we all Collect Bikes..What else?!

    Yep full buckets. I have a few sitting around. Scrapyard sells anything you pick out for whatever they get for it when they sell it in bulk. So 10cents/pound x the weight of the tractor seat. King Midgets are a car. King Motors of Athens, Ohio built them for about 20 years, but it was only 2...

    So we all Collect Bikes..What else?!

    I used to collect a lot of things, but had to cut back. I like to hang onto old temple tokens. Might start collecting King Midget literature and parts/accessories now that I am fixing one up. By the way FZ, tractor seats end up at the scrapyard here. Might be a cheap place to start. You'd be...

    Craigslist nightmares and dreams...

    I've posted this link a couple of times in the past few years because it has spent at least ten years, likely closer to twelve, on CL at $350. Now, after so many years, he drops it to $299. And makes sure to tell you that it is a price drop. Too bad he doesn't mention that it's a $20 bike tops...

    SA 3-speed Dynohub

    A friend of mine was by the house the other day and we were discussing running dynos front and back. I really have no clue how to find out the value. I see the front ones all the time , but never the rear ones.

    Happy holidays y'all

    I fully believed that there were stencils out there like that. I just never dreamed it might be called the skull master 3 :rofl:
