1939 Girls Columbia & a 1947 Mens Columbia ..

[tanksalot]

I have no idea what Im going to do here .The Womans bike is a Fresh Find . The mens bike I found a month or so ago This bike had the wrong guard bars & seat .. But all are killer parts .The bike may have the wrong fork?? Its painted over at the very least.. but the fork works well. I bought another guard for this bike but its light blue .. :? I already have a 1941 & a 1951 Blue Columbia so this 1947 might end up for sale ?? But this bike keeps saying build me .. I bought this awesome Blue Girls Columbia & its a color match for the boys bike but its a 1939 . So the Guard is to early & the fork is to long .. This bike is way way to nice to use for parts for this mens bike .. The girls bike even has near mint lightning dart Indian logo tires ..
I have to ask did this girls bike originally have truss rods ???

I found the same girls bike this summer, no truss rods on mine. Someone swapped over the drivetrain to 1/2" pitch so unfortunately mine has mismatched wheels etc.

Nice finds. I'm hoping you decide to part with the '47 It would sure look nice riding around in my neighborhood!!

I have a feeling they may not have had truss rods my 1945 war bike didnt have them either ..

The serial number should show that it was built during war time
