This is the guy I traded for a 1950 Schwinn Hornet that is currently in pcs to strip and replate. Mr Arbuckle is about 90 yrs old and repairs sewing machines and sells cloth but has a stash of mopeds and bikes to sell and these are not all of them. He has a garage with the older stuff that he hasn't touched yet but he was out on his tractor so I didn't get pics. They are mostly female bikes some in really good condition from '50-'70s with some tanks. http://www.arbuckles-rrp.com/ BTW- He doesn't have any muscle bikes that I know of.
First up is a ratted rear steer Colson brass badged "Pierce" and tagged 1936.

All for now until I get pics of what's in the garage. Surprisingly they said they could ship.
 
the first tandem looks kind of home made, rear half being a Rollfast zep/hawthorne scout frame. Certainly doesn't look like any dual steer Colson's I've come across. Looks well done though

Another similar.
Too bad the pic I posted was blurry but the bike has new red tires, red teardrop pedals and grips and new paint. Front Sprocket is skiptooth Schwinn. Rear double sprocket probably original. Repainted recently with automotive grade paint. It was set out to be ridden downtown this evening by a single rider on the back to pick up a gal...
