Thanks coaster, you never know. Last year I threw a car steering wheel on BEER RUN one day before the deadline just because I found it at a yard sale.

I need to do some thinking on the light bracket piece. I am not sure if it looks right that. Probably just means some trimming. We'll see in the end.

Actually, I think the light bracket needs to flow better with the eagle. Something sleeker, but functional.

Spent tonight roaming practically every isle at Home Depot looking for something that would flow better on top of the 54 Chevy Eagle as a spotlight bracket. I think I found it. It's a simple 6.5" shelving bracket. Duh, of course right??? Why didn't I think of that in the first place?????? I was so close to cutting off the chrome handle of my caulk gun (seriously, that was one of my options).

I'll take a photo of the chrome caulk gun tomorrow. It was another $2 yard sale find a while back.

Love the bars as well!

Thanks Charlie, I really dig the bars with this frame too.
A couple of evenings ago, I had my shop doors open to the lane and a guy walked by, the stopped in his tracks to back up and look at the bars.
I guess I did the right thing when I paid 5 or 10 bucks for them at a yard sale.
 
Re: █ Flex★Liner⑦ █ TwinFlexSpaceLiner 6/29 Spotlight Bracket

Wow, nice score! I hope that I can get away with some cool musclebike parts on the snake before the deadline, but I don't think anyone will be able to match those bars! (I've got a HUGE old bicycle auction sale on the fourth of august, about six of everything)
 
Re: █ Flex★Liner⑦ █ TwinFlexSpaceLiner 6/30 Yard Sale Find

Had a good yard sale morning. Check out this pair of Phillips (Raleigh) Manhattans that I picked up. Both have SA 3 Speed Generator hubs, front and back lights, bells, tire pump, and really cool seatube decals. The mens bike also has a neat stem mounted rear view mirror and a nice color matching seatbag with original tool kit inside.

I have never seen a lugged cantilever before and wasn't even aware that Raleigh made any cantis during this era. I am guessing late 50s to mid 60s.

Lotta cool parts on those. That seat tube decal is rockin'.
Click to expand...

Yeah, I love that NY NY skyline and music notes on the decal!!! Seems a bit out of character for a British bike.
I love the old generator hubs and never knew they did a rear one, esecially on the 3 speed.

I forgot to check the SA date on the hub.

Congrats! These bikes were outside of my normal yardsale neighborhoods, but they had them vaguely advertised, so I took a chance and it paid off.

I tell you one thing though. I had no idea that you could get STINK on a bike. I loaded them in the back of my SUV and went off to another yard sale. When I got back in my car at the next sale, gosh, it reaked of cat urine!!!! Spent the rest of the yard saling morning with the windows down and luckily one of the sales had a can of Lysol I bought. These were obviously house kept along with a butt load of cats I guess. Maybe I will use the men's bike for BO8 and call it Cat Piss.
