1930s Roadmaster build

[Boardtrack fan]

Some of you may recognize this frame and fork from the pictures of Chestnut Hallows rusty frame pile. I recently figured out that it is Roadmaster from the 30s. I had a couple of 1930s girls CWC bikes laying around so I decided to build it up. I plan on eventually tearing it back down and painting it. Some of the parts in the pictures are for mock-up only. The stem and seat will most likely get changed. The chain guard is from the bike that became my Maldwyn build.

BTF,

I like this build and what you are starting with. If you don't end up using that wheelset, give me a shout. I have a stocker that needs that set of grey's with the black stripe.

Thanks, Jeo

They are actually supposed to be white with a cobalt blue stripe. They should clean up pretty nice. They came off a 30s girls Roadmaster (the fork is laying on the ground).

Oh Yeah! I got a set of really nice peaked fenders in Grey and cobalt with a red pinstripe that would look kickin with those wheels then! :lol: :lol: :lol: :shock:

Anyway, just thought I would get you some props on this one. Post up some progress pics along the way.

Thanks Joe, Ive got the cobalt with white and red fenders from the girls bike. I would have put them on but the screw that attaches the front is busted off in the fork. I will be posting pictures but, this one is behind a couple of others in line.

Looks great so far...love the parts combo and that frame is killer. :wink:
