This build will take about a year most likely. I'm away at school right now so all I'm doing is gathering up the parts. Frame is a 1939 Rollfast Ambassador (Longtank), at least that's what I think from some quick research. I plan to strip the frame down, weld some supports, and get it powder...

thats awesome good job!

I don't know if I'm allowed to post a picture of my girlfriend's bike and mine (same picture just 2 bikes) so here is mine.

Thanks everyone!

Does anyone know which head badge I need for this bike?

Snow Day 1936 Schwinn Here's the thread http://www.ratrodbikes.com/forum/index.php?threads/prewar-schwinn-snow-day-finished-pics.79842/ Before: After:

THESE PHOTOS CAN ALSO BE FOUND ON THE FIRST POST OF THIS THREAD! Here it is FINISHED here's the keychain I made out of the left over chain links from the chain on the bike. SO THERE SHE IS, "SNOW DAY". WHAT DOES EVERYONE THINK?

BIKE IS FINISHED! Got the rear hub trouble fixed up, changed the sprocket yet again and already took her around town! I'll put up some pictures tonight or tomorrow depending on when I take it for another ride. I ditched the rear fender idea also and made a cool keychain for the locking fork key.

It's a new departure model d. It's probably my third one I've rebuilt. This one keeps loosening when I bolt it on. I just need to get another wrench to hold the bearing nuts tight. I just lost all of my patience the other day, I'm sure I'll get it soon enough lol

I swear this bike is fighting me every step of the way! I'm about done but the rear hub is giving me trouble and I'll probably ditch the rear fender idea.

It fits perfectly with the bike!

The seat is surprisingly comfortable as it is. It gives me a "stretched" style of riding.

Thanks Glen! Let me clear that up: NEW PICTURES ADDED TO ORIGINAL POST

Some more pics added

Thanks for the info! I'll be sure to check for a number

I'm getting a new sprocket, I wasn't sure if I I wanted a standard chain or skip tooth one....im going with the skip tooth

Thanks for the tip but I still need another bearing retainer then. I only have one

Would you be willing to trade?
